Sonagachi in North Kolkata is home to an estimated 12,000 sex workers. These women have organised themselves in a union to fight for their basic human rights and protect their future.
Sonke is a South African-based non-profit organisation working throughout Africa. We believe women and men, girls and boys can work together to resist patriarchy, advocate for gender justice and achieve gender transformation.
