This publication is a part of CREA's program initiative “Count Me In! Addressing Violence Against Marginalized Women in South Asia” supported by the Dutch Ministry's MDG3 Fund. The Count Me In! initiative aims to address the stark gender inequalities that persist in South Asia. This publication was commissioned by CREA as a resource for a meeting entitled ‘Ain't I A Woman? A Global Dialogue between the Sex Workers' Rights Movement and the Stop Violence against Women Movement' held from 12-14 March 2009 in Bangkok, Thailand. This meeting, with key stakeholders within these movements, has informed the framing of the issues and strategies being dealt with in the Count Me In! Initiative and is part of the evolving work that CREA is doing on violence against
marginalised women
