Understanding and Challenging TB Stigma Toolkit

This toolkit was developed in response to the need to address TB stigma especially where TB and HIV co-infection rates are high. It involves participatory workshops with health-workers, people living with HIV, and ex-TB patients. It was written by and for trainers and can help trainers plan and organise participatory educational sessions with community leaders or organized groups to raise awareness and promote practical action to challenge HIV and TB stigma and discrimination. It has been designed as a stand alone tool but can be used with the Alliance toolkit, ‘Understanding and challenging HIV Stigma.” The publication contains a range of participatory games, exercises and picture tools to help address TB stigma, suitable for a range of contexts and settings.
