Sex Worker Community Recognition Awards Nominations

Welcome to the official nominations for the SW Community Recognition Awards!

This event is proudly sponsored by our Presenting Partner: Stigma Health - Australia's largest online sexual health clinic.

An awards night by us, for us. This event celebrates real work, real impact, and real connection across the sex work and adult industry communities.

These aren’t your average awards. Each category has been shaped by lived experience, and every nomination is part of a bigger story of recognition, care, and pride.

-Sex worker-run and unapologetically community led

-Verified nominations

-Clear, considered, and accountable voting

-A mix of public, peer, and board-selected awards

We’ve built an intentional process, one where recognition comes from the community itself, not from algorithms or popularity contests.

To support clarity and thoughtful nominations, each award category includes a short description. These are designed to help you understand what the award is for and to help spark ideas for the most fitting nominees.

Non-sex worker specific awards can be for any allied business including toy + lingerie companies, photographers + videographers, industry focused or adjacent magazines, industry connected organisations, directories, PR + management agencies etc.

Please note: All pre-nominations will be vetted for eligibility before being accepted as official nominees. This helps us maintain integrity, respect, and alignment with the spirit of each award.

Whether you’re nominating yourself, a peer, a business, or a project: thank you for being part of this moment. Let’s celebrate the people and work that truly deserve the spotlight.

The SWCRAwards are also proud to support the work of Vixen, Victoria's peer sex worker organisation.
