Abstract
Global Action to reduce HIV stigma and discrimination
Highlights
Given recent advances in biomedical prevention, the global community has begun to seriously contemplate an AIDS-free generation for the first time in three decades
Specific research strides include a solid evidence base of valid measures that capture multiple domains of stigma associated with HIV [7,8], including one measure showcased in this special issue
There remains a need for empirically derived data, stigma and discrimination interventions have been developed and implemented in the field [9,10], as well as a comprehensive toolkit of stigma reduction activities [11], components of which are being tested as part of National Institutes of Health-supported research [12]
