Scarlet Alliance is Australia's national peak sex worker organisation. It was formed in 1989. As an organisation maintained entirely by current and former sex workers, Scarlet Alliance aims to achieve equality, social, legal, political, cultural and economic justice for workers in the sex industry. Since its inception, Scarlet Alliance has primarily relied on volunteers to manage the organisation. However, in 2004 Scarlet Alliance was granted ongoing government funding to undertake project work in Australia and within the Asia/ Pacific region. ==Aim== Scarlet Alliance advocates on behalf of a membership consisting of: * individual sex workers * funded state level sex worker organizations〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sin.org.au/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.respectqld.org.au/index.html )〕 * peer led sex worker projects〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aidsaction.org.au/swop/about.php )〕 * unfunded sex worker activist networks〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sexworkersunion.org/about.php )〕 * sex worker interest groups〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.touchingbase.org/ )〕 The organisation aims to inform and influence the policies of: * state and national governments * primary health care service providing medical services to sex workers * state and federal police * the Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) * the Commonwealth Attorney-General's Department * political parties * interest groups within the sex industry〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aaei.com.au/Aboutus.php )〕 * regional and international funding bodies Scarlet Alliance aims to promote an increased understanding of sex workers and the issues affecting them.
