DESCRIPTION:Widely hailed as a global pioneer in anti-trafficking\, the Ph
 ilippines offers a revealing lens on the unintended consequences of “pro
 tective” governance. This talk unsettles assumptions about anti-traffick
 ing as a straightforward human rights victory and explains how carceral an
 d donor-driven interventions have intensified the precarity of sex workers
  and undermined their agency. Drawing on findings from a collaborative eth
 nography with sex workers in the Philippines\, it foregrounds vernacular f
 orms of resistance by sex workers and raises complex questions about femin
 ist engagements with the state on questions of labour\, gender\, rights\, 
 and sexual violence.\nSpeakers:\nDr Sharmila Parmanand (LSE)
