The objective of this study was to investigate how environmental and structural changes to a trans outdoor work environment impacted sex workers in Vancouver, Canada. The issue of changes to the work area arose during qualitative interviews with 33 trans sex workers. In response, ethnographic walks that incorporated photography were undertaken with trans sex workers. Changes to the work environment were found to increase vulnerabilities to client violence, displace trans sex workers, and affect policing practices. Within a criminalized context, construction and gentrification enhanced vulnerabilities to violence and harassment from police and residents.
本研究的目的是调查加拿大温哥华跨性别户外工作环境的环境和结构变化如何影响性工作者。在对33名跨性别性工作者进行定性访谈时出现了工作区域变化的问题。作为回应，与跨性别性工作者一起进行了结合摄影的人种志徒步调查。研究发现，工作环境的变化增加了遭受客户暴力的脆弱性，使跨性别性工作者流离失所，并影响治安措施。在刑事定罪的背景下，建设和高档化加剧了来自警察和居民的暴力和骚扰的脆弱性。
