Taking Down Stigma and Discrimination Towards Youth: Building Quality of Care in Health Facilities
Self-reflection and small group work to identify ways that youth seeking HIV and sexual and reproductive health services are being stigmatized and how stigma and discrimination can be addressed in health facilities. Recognizing that youth account for a disproportionate number of new HIV infections and face stigma and discrimination when trying to access HIV and sexual and reproductive health services, the USAID- and PEPFAR-funded HP+ project included a focus on stigma and discrimination towards youth in health facilities in an evaluation study of health facility-based stigma and discrimination-reduction interventions in Tanzania. Based on findings and lessons learned in Tanzania, this workshop will include a presentation on the baseline data and how it shaped intervention design and share participatory stigma and discrimination-reduction activities focused on reducing stigma and discrimination towards youth in health facilities.
Presenters: Pfiriael Kiwia, Kimara Peer Educators and Health Promoters Trust Fund; Josephine Nabukenya, Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation; Laura Nyblade, Health Policy Plus; and Sara Bowsky, Health Policy Plus
