My research will focus on issues of gender, sexuality and the body in the context of sex workers trafficking from Nigeria to Italy. I aim at actively contributing not only to anthropological knowledge, but also to more political and social issues related to the lives of these women within a wider social context, in a time when migration and the rights of migrants are becoming a central issue for European and global politics.
