Stigma and discrimination against people living with HIV still exist on multiple fronts, including within healthcare organisations. These must be addressed consistently and in a timely manner in order to maximise and actualise the benefits of scientific and clinical advances in HIV medicine in Singapore.
Join us this World AIDS Day as we follow Jason's journey as a person living with HIV. Find out more about the effects of HIV stigma and discrimination on patient care, and learn what we can do as healthcare providers to combat it.
Who Should Attend
- Healthcare workers and students
