Description

Sylvain Honoré Woromogo and five co-authors published a public health survey in twenty twenty-five on violence against female sex workers in Berbérati, Central African Republic. Despite a national strategy against gender-based violence, cases stay stubbornly high. Sex workers are among the most exposed groups, so the study hunted for the strongest risk factors.

Peer-driven sampling recruited the hidden population, and regression analysis sorted the determinants. Workers under twenty faced the highest risk of violence and sexual exploitation. Regular drinking more than doubled the odds of abuse. Depending on sex work as the main income also raised risk, and having military or police clients tripled it. The authors call for protections aimed squarely at these drivers.
