  • ABOUT X:TALK

    The x:talk project is a space to organise and empower workers in the sex industry and to encourage critical interventions around the issues of MIGRATION, GENDER and LABOUR.

    The project is a conscious effort to develop a practical and needed service and ultimately hopes to build political alliances and strengthen migrant sex worker networks.
