Do we understand each other yet? Transactional sex, agency and service failure in Bangladesh and Lebanon
This episode features Megan Denise Smith, a humanitarian worker and gender-based violence specialist working in Cox's Bazar in Bangladesh. This talk was given on May 10th 2022.
Megan has ten years of experience working with migrants and refugees in Bangladesh, Egypt, Lebanon, Rwanda, and the UK. She is currently based in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) where she has managed IOM´s GBV programming as part of the Rohingya refugee response since 2017. Megan studied for her undergraduate degree at Kingston University. She can be contacted at: megandenisesmith@gmail.com
Paper abstract:
Transactional Sex (TS) is often used as an umbrella term to encompass a wide range of practices ranging from sex work to sexual exploitation and abuse. It is typically framed as in humanitarian settings through reductive lenses that portray the person engaged in them as without agency, forced into "negative coping strategies" by a larger crisis. Using the humanitarian refugee response in Bangladesh and Lebanon as case studies, this presentation will establish how humanitarians construct the "transactional sex worker" through assessments and programming as a subject in need of saving and reform and then explore how humanitarians fail to be accountable to transactional sex workers as a result – especially women and people with diverse sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics (SOGIESC).

Kingston University Human Rights Festival 2022: In Equality, Not Inequality: Empowering Voices for Human Rights
After long harrowing journeys to the UK, many children seeking safety arrive here alone. The only thing waiting for them is a difficult and draining immigration process. With nobody looking out for them, it's tough. A group of young people known as the YLCSC are fighting to change this. So that all children who arrive in the UK alone get a legal guardian - someone to take them to immigration interviews, make sure they're heard, help them adapt to life in a new country. Guardians give children seeking asylum hope for a brighter future.
The event speakers are:
- Ibrahim Soqi Ali Haroun.
- Hilda Higiro.
