Abstract

The present research aimed to understand the relationship between social inclusion and the meaning of life in sex workers in the city of Bogotá, from an existential humanist perspective, in order to generate new understandings regarding said relationship, as well as new looks in relation to sex work. The population of the current research was selected through a non-probability sampling for convenience or opportunity, which was made up of five sex workers, who work in the modality of commercial sex workers and as striptease dancers. To give rise to the purpose of the research, the method used was of a hermeneutical interpretive type through a Narrative design with a phenomenological theoretical orientation from qualitative research, which allowed the understanding of the phenomenon from the interpretation of meanings. And where the Narrative design allowed in turn to give prominence to the voices of the participants, mainly recognizing their stories and life experiences, in order to subsequently analyze these stories.
