Details
This workshop is designed to deliver core foundational knowledge about stigma in health care and build skills in identifying potential research questions and action-based responses. This workshop will be applicable for people interested in stigma associated with numerous conditions (not only drug use) as it will include an overview of current effort to develop “universal” approaches to stigma reduction rather than programs based on any one condition, practice or identity. This workshop is designed for researchers (including Masters and PhD students), community members, and workers in community-based organisations and health organisations.
