Recommended Practices to Combat HIV-Related Stigma

We highly value and appreciate recent WCC publications related to the HIV response for three reasons: First, they address crucial challenges related to the inequalities driving the epidemic. Second, they confirm that only a multistakeholder approach involving all partners can bring sustainable results. Third, they demonstrate commitment by one of the biggest global FBOs to the implementation of the Global AIDS strategy, especially in this critical moment when objectives adopted by the international community are in danger.

​​​​​​​Inequalities in access to life and health-giving love, grace, compassion, solidarity, and equity and justice continue to drive HIV stigma and AIDS itself. Given our reach and our infrastructure in health, education, and communication, faith communities and congregations are uniquely positioned to address these inequalities faster and more sustainably. This booklet will do much to enhance our “End Inequalities,  End AIDS” consciousness, competence, and resilience.
