Looking for research reports on HIV-related stigma... (3)
---------------------------------------------------------

Dear Ms. Mavuso:

The following (edited) list of resources comes from page 17 of
last year's RFA #03-C-1 for Pact's Community REACH Project for
NGO HIV/AIDS Activities. As I recall, many of these resources
include additional bibliographic information, which would proba-
bly cover the kinds of studies that you need.

I would also search http://www.globalhealth.org for possible
leads on information. Here is one:

"Disentangling HIV and AIDS Stigma" This report unravels the
complexities around HIV/AIDS stigma by investigating the causes,
manifestations and consequences.
http://www.globalhealth.org/sources/view.php3?id=618&type=newsletter
(from GHC's Weekly Update)

Since last year's World AIDS Day focused on S&D, I would check
out http://www.unaids.org to see what resources they recommended
at the time.

Lastly, my notes show that the World Bank has also done work-
shops (?) relating to S&D. Their site might have more informa-
tion. Here is an old link:

"Overcoming AIDS Stigma and Media Fatigue" The World Bank organ-
ized a distance-learning course that put developing countries in
charge of designing strategies to reduce stigma and discrimina-
tion.

All the best in your research,
