KESWA is an umbrella body of sex workers led groups and organisations and it exists to
strengthen the voices of sex workers and to empower their health and human rights
We were established in 2010, registered as a Non-Governmental Organizaton in 2013, according to Kenyan law.
KESWA recognizes diversity, thus includes female sex workers (FSWs), male sex workers (MSWs) and transgender sex workers (TSWs), sex workers who use and inject drugs, sex workers living positively, migrant sex workers and refugee sex workers in Kenya.
The pact for the future must commit to health. There is no future without health. Without health, we cannot eradicate poverty and inequality and tackle our climate crisis. Health is essential to meet all SDGs.
Let's kickstart this week by shedding light on #MentalHealthMonday!
Mental health isn't just about the absence of illness; it's about nurturing our well-being, finding balance, and seeking support when needed. Let's prioritize self-care, and destigmatize conversations.
We are absolutely thrilled to announce the re-nomination of our esteemed National Coordinator, Phelister Abdalla, as President of the Global Network of Sex Workers Project.
