In this episode, we dive into the realities faced by sex workers in Kenya, exploring the complex interplay between economic survival, public health, and deeply rooted cultural beliefs. We discuss the ongoing fight against the spread of HIV, the effectiveness of prevention strategies such as PrEP and condom distribution, and the role of advocacy groups in protecting the rights and health of sex workers.
Our conversation also addresses the societal and cultural barriers that make change difficult, including stigma, legal challenges, and resistance to education on safe practices. How can communities, policymakers, and health organizations work together to foster a safer environment? Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion with Pooja Shah who has done on field research on this issue.
