Sex Workers Education and Advocacy Taskforce (SWEAT) is the first sex workers' rights organization to be established in southern Africa and is renowned as the most prominent sex worker movement on the continent, according to scholars. SWEAT's work primarily focuses on organizing, advocating for and delivering services to South African sex workers. The organization supports the decriminalization of sex work. SWEAT are affiliated with the transgender sex worker support group SistaazHood. SWEAT was founded in November 1994 in Cape Town, South Africa by Shane Petzer (a male sex worker) and Ilse Pauw (clinical psychologist). Initially associated with the Triangle Project, a South African LGBTQ+ rights organization, SWEAT's advocates recognized the need for a human rights approach to provide services and assistance to sex workers, leading to their separation in 1996.
