Image Gallery: Anti-stigma & other campaigns

These images are from an anti-stigma campaign, Turn off the Blue light, in Ireland. They focus on presenting sex workers' explanations for their job choice, affirming that women can and do willingly choose this work. 

These images are from a canadian anti-stigma campaign by Stepping Stone, which seeks to point out the reality that sex workers are normal people. The organization states, "all individuals have the right to self determination" and "Our ultimate goal is the safety, health and well being of former and current sex workers."

These are photographs of a street art campaign in Argentina that sought to dispell false notions of who prostitutes are. The images were all put up on corners, from one side all the viwer can see is the stereotypical, salacious prostitue. But when viewed from the corner, the woman is connected to a child. This visual seeks to address the stereotype and to make the observer aware of their pre-concieved notions.
