Trafficking and prostitution: experiences of intervention on the street

Abstract

This contribution is taken from the encounters of both a formation day at the university and the experiences of social work spanning many years with the Magliana 80 cooperative, in Rome. The challenge, an interesting one, was to reflect on women’s groups. Rereading the work experience, a few doubts arose: women psychologists and patients/users have access to services? Is it easy, or are we dealing with an achievement/renunciation? The female specific has the opportunity to be represented? From these questions arises a basic assumption. Women in many areas are excluded either by negative bias towards them, or for lack of time, incompatible to family life.
