It’s very obvious why 14th. Feb is Australian National Condom Day.

If you’re gonna do it, do it safe.

NSWP’s calling

February 11th, 2007

The NSWP’s annual publication Research for Sex Work seeks contributors for its next issue. This will be the 10th issue of Research for Sex Work and the theme of the next issue is the sex workers’ rights movement. Research for Sex Work welcomes three types of articles: 1) research results, 2) project or programme descriptions and 3) analyses/overview articles.

Here are some suggestions of topics that could be covered:

  • History of the sex workers’ rights movement
  • How HIV changed the sex workers’ rights movement
  • Sex workers and labour rights
  • Emerging issues facing sex workers
  • Responses to violence against sex workers
  • Sex workers and allies
  • Achievements great and small
  • Next steps

These are just some suggestions. Other ideas for articles that would fit in the broad theme of sex workers’ rights are welcome. If you would like to contribute, please send a message about your work and the topic of your article to the chief editor, Melissa Ditmore, at r4sw at nomadcode dot org as soon as possible. You may also contact her if you need additional information. You do not need to be fluent in English, because we will edit all articles. If you are more fluent in Chinese, Hindi or French, you can also submit your article in one of these languages. Please don’t hesitate to share your experiences with a world-wide audience!

Deadline for all submissions is February 15, 2007; the maximum number of words is 1,200.
