On 2 June 2022, the Greek Association of People Living with HIV – Positive Voice and the Empowerment Centre for Sex Workers Red Umbrella Athens organised an event about sex work as part of the project “DANA: empowering sex workers”, which is implemented under the Active Citizens Fund programme.
What became clear throughout the event was the need to change Law 2734/1999 regarding sex work, which is not realistic and is considered incomplete and anachronistic.
The current legal framework makes it extremely difficult for someone to work legally in sex work, especially in Athens, where the majority of brothels operate unlicensed which leaves people providing sexual services unprotected.
