The networking is working to develop members’ capacity, accelerate the movement of the sex works in promoting their rights, ensure access to institutional services and facilities, create an enabling environment for the children of sex workers, financial security for the aged sex workers, observing national and international Days. The human rights movement of SWN is driven by national and international documents on human rights, and women’s and children’s rights like CEDAW, CRC, etc. The goal of Facilitating Attainment Initiative of Rights and Empowerment (FAIR) of Sex Workers and their Children program is to develop an enabling environment where sex workers and their children will live with dignity with an objective to develop their capacity in raising voice and leadership skill to negotiate with duty bearers for their entitlement as well as addressing strategic gender interests.
