Tattoo Event
International Sex Workers Day
Sex workers are sick and tired of unequal treatment. In the run-up to International Sex Worker’s Day we’ll be tattooing a part of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
Next Monday May 25th we will tattoo the word ‘protection’ from article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on their bodies at a secured location in Rotterdam.
The Dutch government falls short in safeguarding the basic human rights of sex workers. Sex workers do not receive equal treatment and the same protection as others, but instead are increasingly faced with a decline in workplaces, impossible regulation, repression, registration and criminalization. This makes sex workers more vulnerable to discrimination, violence and exploitation. The unequal treatment by the Dutch government has again become painfully clear in the current corona crisis.
