Consensus on addressing HIV-related stigma and achieving the societal enabler targets using an adapted Delphi process
This study illustrated that global experts across sectors consider that action is needed to support the three critical enablers of the HIV response-society, systems and services-to ensure that HIV services are non-discriminatory and person-centred. The importance of attention and action to reduce stigma is critical in the current geopolitical and funding crisis affecting HIV and global health.
