Abstract
Complex combinations of law, policy, and enforcement practices determine sex workers vulnerability to HIV and rights abuses. We identify ?lack of recognition as a person before the law? as an important but undocumented barrier to accessing services and conclude that multi-faceted, setting-specific reform is needed?rather than a singular focus on decriminalization?if the health and human rights of sex
workers are to be realized.
