Stigma & Discrimination Forums 




The Stigma & Discrimination Forums are a global educational series of highly interactive half-day discussions on strategies to reduce stigma and discrimination experienced by people living with HIV. The program targets all relevant stakeholders such as healthcare providers, community advocates, and policymakers. The lectures reflect on region-specific aspects of the HIV epidemic, including national policies, guidelines, and societal context. They include community and healthcare perspectives of HIV-related stigma and discrimination as well as national plans and programs for the implementation of strategies to eliminate these major issues for people living with HIV.
