INSTRAW Library

Welcome to the INSTRAW LIBRARY, a compilation of around 600 publications produced by the former UN International Research and Training Institute for the Advancement of Women (UN-INSTRAW), which served as the leading UN institute devoted to research, training and knowledge management to achieve gender equality and women’s empowerment. INSTRAW, along with DAW, OSAGI and UNIFEM, came together in 2010 to establish the present UN Women.

Description:

Este estudio trata sobre migración, trabajo sexual y tráfico de mujeres en el contexto de globalización. Según el estudio la participación de mujeres extranjeras en el trabajo sexual se explica por dos factores fundamentales, primero por el cierre de fronteras y las restricciones a la migración.En segundo lugar,por el deterioro de las condiciones de vida que acompaña la intensificación de las políticas anti-inmigración, así como la baja remuneración y las precariedades que sufren las migrantes empleadas en otros sectores laborales.
