Rally calling for the decriminalisation of sex work in South Australia

Date and Time: 
Thursday, June 2, 2011 -
12:00pm to 2:00pm
Location: 
Steps of parliament house, North Trc, Adelaide

South Australian sex work laws criminalising sex workers date back to the 1930's. The laws are harmful to sex workers, discriminatory and out of date. Police regularly raid suspected brothels, arrest sex workers, use condoms and other safe sex info as evidence, harass and intimidate sex workers.

We are the last state in Australia to not revisit our sex industry laws and as a result sex workers are being forced to put police evasion techniques before safety strategies.

Join us as we call on the South Australian government to protect the health, rights and wellbeing of sex workers and demand dignity choice and law reform!!
