"SWOU 2011" is a 15 minutes long documentary realised during the Sex Worker Open University held in October 2011 in London, UK. During one week, sex workers and allies came together to share their experiences, their knowledge, educating themselves and the public about their working conditions, the effects of stigmatisation and criminalisation, and their struggle to achieve the recognition of sex work as work and for their human and labour rights. With more than 50 workshops, film and performance night, international presentations and public action and around 400 participants, the SWOU 2011 was a succesful event that invigorated the sex workers activists movement in the UK and worldwide! The footages were filmed by several sex workers and allies during the week and edited by SWOU member Stuart Ireson in London.
