Grace's story Part I

Hi, my name is Grace, I'm 24 and I'm a sex worker. As a woman and as a sex worker, I've been stigmatised, disrespected and abused, even by Community Health Workers (CHW) and staff at health centres funded by the Global Fund. I feel angry and frustrated! What should I do?

Grace's Realisation

The more I read, the more I learnt that the Global Fund has always had a challenging relationship with human rights and gender equality. The growing influence of the anti-rights movement and the continued criminalisation of key populations in many countries funded by the Global Fund presents many difficult questions.

Stay strong and positive!

Don't endure stigma and abuse on your own. The sex workers movement is strong and resilient. Visit the NSWP website and connect with other sex workers!

Key populations include sex workers, people who use and inject drugs, transgender men and women, and men who have sex with other men.

The Global Fund's main challenge is to ensure the rights of key and criminalised vulnerable populations are respected, in countries that continue to ignore those rights, without cutting off financing for life saving drugs and commodities.

Great choice!

After asking some friends for advice, Grace looks at the NSWP website to see what they say and suggest about gender equality for sex workers. She checks out the website and accesses the many policy briefs, briefing papers, smart guides and case studies and through her research she learns the Global Fund has a commitment to gender equality in its latest strategy 2023-2028
