PETICIÓN: Al Consejo de Amnistía Internacional



Hacemos un llamado al Consejo de Amnistía Internacional para que se mantenga firme y apoye la despenalización del trabajo sexual para así proteger los derechos humanos de las trabajadoras sexuales





Global Network of Sex Work Projects (NSWP - Edinburgh, Reino Unido) y nuestr*s aliad*s aprovechamos esta oportunidad para expresar nuestro apoyo al proyecto borrador de política de Amnistía Internacional que llama a la despenalización del trabajo sexual, que ha de ser presentado para su aprobación en la reunión del Consejo Internacional durante los dias 6 al 11 de Agosto de 2015. Amnistía Internacional se enfrenta a una reacción violenta de defensor*s al proponer una política que defiende los derechos humanos de l*s trabajador*s sexuales. 
Pedimos al Consejo de Amnistía Internacional que se mantenga firme y apoye la despenalización del trabajo sexual y protega los derechos humanos de l*s trabajador*s sexuales.
Este proyecto borrador está respaldado por los resultados de la investigación realizadas en distintos paises, llevadas a cabo por Amnistía Internacional sobre el impacto de la criminalización del trabajo sexual en los derechos humanos y también en la consulta de 2014, que incluyó el aporte de much*s trabajador*s sexuales de todo el mundo - la comunidad más afectada por estas propuestas. NSWP también quisiera condenar , en los términos más enérgicos posibles, la declaración CATW, una carta abierta y petición online que ataca las propuestas de Amnistía Internacional. La posición de CATW es estigmatizante, discriminatoria y tergiversa los hechos, al confundir el trabajo sexual con la trata de personas. 

Lo más importante es que ignora las experiencias vividas por l*s trabajador*s del sexo, silencia sus voces y trata de perpetuar sistemas jurídicos que ponen a los profesionales del sexo en crecientes situaciones de violencia, estigmatización y discriminación; así como tambien implica la limitación de su acceso a los servicios sanitarios y sociales. 
Además, CATW está ignorando el cuerpo abrumador de pruebas y las conclusiones de los organismos internacionales, como el Programa Conjunto de las Naciones Unidas sobre el VIH / SIDA, que recomiendan que los gobiernos trabajen por la despenalización del trabajo sexual y la revista The Lancet, que publicó recientemente un programa especial sobre VIH y trabajo sexual, que también recomienda la despenalización del trabajo sexual e informó: "La despenalización del trabajo sexual tendría un gran efecto positivo en el curso de la epidemia del VIH en todas sus variables, evitando 33-46% de las infecciones de VIH en la próxima década".
Hay un amplio reconocimiento entre los organismos internacionales sobre la despenalización del trabajo sexual como necesaria para proteger y respetar los derechos humanos de l*s trabajador*s sexuales. Estas agencias incluyen; ONUSIDA, el FNUAP, el PNUD, la OMS, el Banco Mundial, la Alianza Global contra el Tráfico de Mujeres (GAATW), Human Rights Watch, la revista The Lancet, Open Society Foundations. Global Network of Sex Work Projects (NSWP) ha emitido una declaración de apoyo a Amnistía Internacional que establece algunos puntos de la amplia evidencia que respalda la petición de Amnistía Internacional para la despenalización del trabajo sexual, y pide a l*s defensores de los derechos humanos de estar junto a l*s profesionales del sexo en el apoyo a esta política progresista. 

Por favor firme esta petición para mostrar su apoyo a la resolución de Amnistía Internacional para apoyar la despenalización del trabajo sexual y garantizar que los derechos humanos de l*s trabajador*s sexuales sean respetados.
