Promoting and Protecting the Health and Human Rights of Sex Workers in the Asia Pacific Region.
About us
APNSW was established by sex workers in 1994 at the International AIDS Conference held in Yokohama, Japan. Over the years, APNSW has successfully reached out to sex workers in over 22 countries, and supported the establishment of new sex worker groups, fostered solidarity between groups, established partnerships with other networks, and formalized itself into a registered organization.
Memberships
APNSW is a membership-based organisation. Membership is open to sex worker-led organisations and networks, and to civil society organisations that provide rights-based services to sex workers in the Asia Pacific region and who endorse APNSW’S vision, mission, goals and core values.
