NZPC - Aotearoa New Zealand Sex Workers' Collective

NZPC - Aotearoa New Zealand Sex Workers' Collective NZPC - Aotearoa New Zealand Sex Workers' Collective http://www.nzpc.org.nz/ NZPC was established with the ideals of the Ottawa Charter (1986) in mind.

The New Zealand Prostitutes Collective (NZPC) was formed in 1987 by sex workers as an organisation determined to seek equal rights for sex workers. A year later, NZPC agreed to sign a contract with the Minister of Health to provide a range of services to sex workers with a focus on HIV and AIDS. NZPC established community bases in New Zealand’s main centres, and worked hard to create opportunities

for sex workers to communicate their issues. Since inception, NZPC has advocated for the recognition of sex work as work, and the repeal of those laws that criminalise, and discriminate against, sex workers. The Charter acknowledged the importance of community action. In other words, sex workers were able to take control of their own health promotion programs as much as possible in order to determine the direction those programs should take.

This is why we decriminalised s3x work in 2003. Sadly the then Minister of Immigration added what later became s19 without discussing it with NZPC. We certainly didn't ask for it and it's why we've advocated for its removal since then. All the research shows how bad s19 is but successive Governments have ignored it, sadly.

Our Story

New Zealand Prostitutes’ Collective

The New Zealand Prostitutes' Collective is run by s*x workers, for s*x workers, and advocates for the rights, health, and well being of all s*x workers. We are committed to working for the empowerment of s*x workers, so that s*x workers can have control over all aspects of their work and lives.

Our services focus on workers rights, HIV and STI prevention, and education. We also provide safer s*x supplies to s*x workers, and offer free s*xual health clinics at our community bases.

NZPC has long been at the forefront of reforming the law for s*x workers. We helped draft the Prostitution Reform Act which decriminalised s*x work in New Zealand, and built support for it as it passed into law.
