We are delighted to be standing together with partners to launch A Model for Scotland.  Commercial sexual exploitation persists as a result of how women are viewed by society.  In their Equally Safe Strategy, the Scottish Government has prioritised ensuring men desist from all forms of violence against women and girls and perpetrators of such violence receive a robust and effective response. This violence includes the violence perpetrated by men in relation to acts of commercial sexual exploitation, of which prostitution is one aspect.

They held a consultation in 2020 on approaches to challenge men’s demand for prostitution, continue to support work to reduce the harms associated with commercial sexual exploitation and help women to exit prostitution.

This is an issue which has been debated in Scotland for many years.  We believe this is now the time for action.  As an Alliance we are asking the Scottish Government to act and we invite you to join us.
