Bristol Home Office Research (2019)
In response to the 2016 Home Affairs Committee recommendation that sex workers on the street and working together in premises be decriminalized, the University of Bristol Centre for Gender and Violence Research was commissioned by the government to investigate. The ECP mobilized its network to give evidence to ensure sex workers voices were heard. The research published in November 2019 reflected much of this experience and found that “Austerity is pushing women into sex work and criminalisation is endangering them.”
