It explores protection, labour rights, social recognition, and the tension between the prohibition of sex buying and self-determined sex work. Various experts contribute their expertise, personal experiences and assessments. How do different actors experience the reality of sex work in Switzerland? Where do their perspectives overlap, where do they diverge? What role do protection, self-determination, labour rights and social recognition play? And what can we learn from this about how society and politics should deal with sex work in Switzerland? Exchange is at the heart of this event. Personal experiences meet institutional viewpoints and expert assessments. Together with the audience, a World Café will make different perspectives visible, discuss contradictions and explore how sex work is perceived, regulated and shaped in Switzerland.
