Stigma Research Stream
Published on the 03 July 2024
In Australia, there are currently five national strategies addressing HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C, and sexually transmissible infections. These strategies represent a coordinated response to reduce the transmission, morbidity and mortality associated with these infections. Each strategy contains its own set of objectives, with progress monitored via a set of related indicators. A clear objective exists within each of the five strategies to “eliminate the negative impact of stigma, discrimination, and legal and human rights issues on people’s health”. This is in recognition of the well known detrimental effects of stigma and discrimination, including on physical and mental health, and in discouraging people from accessing health care.
The Stigma Research Stream documents and monitors the experiences and expression of stigma and discrimination targeted at people affected by blood borne viruses and sexually transmissible infections. Priority populations include men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, people living with HIV, people living with viral hepatitis (B and C) and people who engage in sex work. This stream also involves development and implementation of new and novel interventions to address stigma and discrimination, particularly in health care contexts, and ultimately improve the quality of care provided to these priority groups.

Stigma and Discrimination

This study aims to monitor stigma among priority groups identified by the five national strategies addressing blood borne viruses and sexually transmissible infections. An indicator of the experience of stigma is included in ongoing routine surveys among a range of populations, including men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, people living with HIV, people living with viral hepatitis (B and C) and people who engage in sex work. A mirrored indicator measuring the expression of stigma is included in ongoing surveys of health providers and the general public. This study is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health.

The aim of this suite of projects is to review existing literature about stigma reduction initiatives, and then to develop, implement and evaluate new theoretically-informed interventions with key target groups. These interventions will include initiatives aimed at the general public and health workers, and cover individually and organisationally-based strategies for change. One such project is the Universal Precautions project, which seeks to develop and trial a world-first systemic approach to stigma reduction by leveraging health system precepts of equity, access, and quality. The Universal Precautions project is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health.
