Organisational Structure
Legal Status
The ICRSE is legally constituted organisation registered with the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam, the Netherlands (Dossier number 34216253), and recognised by the tax department as a not-for-profit organisation (Stichting International Committee on the Rights of Sex Workers in Europe, fiscal number 8141.42.643).
Membership
The membership of the ICRSE is open to individuals and organisations of both sex workers and allies living and working in Europe. The Criteria for membership are as follows:
- Recognise sex work as work
- Support sex worker self-organising
- Oppose criminalization of sex work
- Endorsement of the Declaration and the Manifesto
Affiliate membership is possible for sex workers and allies outside Europe with some restrictions.
Management Structure
There is a duly appointed Executive Committee with an Advisory Group drawn from the ICRSE Network members. Both of these bodies require a majority of sex workers. Because of the international nature of the ICRSE, with members living in different countries, the AG maintains an internal email list and the bulk of communication happens through using ICT tools. The Chair and Treasurer of the ICRSE work closely with the Coordinator.
Personnel
The activities of the ICRSE are supported by a part-time paid coordinator. The coordinator is supported by the volunteer assistance of the Executive Committee and the Advisory Group and members of the ICRSE Network.
