1 1 FIGHTING HIV STIGMA AND DISCRIMINATION IN PERU Ximena Salazar, MA. Unit of Studies in Health, Sexuality and Human Development; Cayetano Heredia University Lima, Peru
2 2 Characteristics of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Peru Peru is characterized by having a concentrated epidemic, with the following prevalences: 0.21% prevalence in pregnant women (DGE- MOH) 10.9% prevalence in MSM (Sentinel Surveillance 2011) 29% prevalence in transgender women (UPCH, 2010)
3 3
4 4 Characteristics of stigma in Peru % of the general population in the intervention sites having an attitude of acceptance to PLWHA 2006: only 50% had an attitude of acceptance to PLWHA. 2012: after the interventions this indicator increased to 76%.
5 Characteristics of stigma in Peru In 2006, according to the qualitative study: General population was misinformed about HIV transmission Serious problems of stigma towards MSM, sex workers and transgender women compared with women and children living with HIV Changes in 2012: Greater acceptance in the general population towards PLWHA in Lima, but less in other regions and Increased awareness and information on HIV transmission 5
6 Characteristics of stigma in Peru 6 % of school teachers having an attitude of acceptance towards children living with HIV 2006: 64% of school teachers had an accepting attitude towards children living with HIV 2011: After the interventions this indicator increased to 85%
7 Characteristics of stigma in Peru In 2006, according to the qualitative study we found: An attitude from school teachers and parents against the possibility of having children living with HIV in their schools. Changes in 2012: Schools are working stigma reduction Meetings on stigma and discrimination for teachers and parents Teachers facing parents who express stigma towards children living with HIV Mainstreaming human rights in schools 7
8 Characteristics of stigma in Peru 8 % of health care providers having a positive attitude towards PLWHA and vulnerable populations (gay and transgender women) 2006: 81% of health care providers had an accepting attitude to PLWHA 2012: After the interventions this indicator increased to 91%
9 Characteristics of stigma in Peru In 2006, according to the qualitative study: Health care providers working in HIV clinics have a position of defending PLWA rights Although they treat differently mothers and infants than gay and bisexual men and transgender women Health care providers working in other programs stigmatize PLWHA, do not respect confidentiality and take inadequate attitudes towards them Changes in 2012: The situation has changed gradually In some health facilities, health care providers still have attitudes of stigma and discrimination There are still many prejudices and stigma towards gay men and transgender women living with HIV 9
10 Conceptual Framework of HIV Stigma HIV/AIDS has been associated in Peru with nonnormative sexuality. The stigmatizing action has two components: - Stigma linked to the disease - Stigma associated to the preexisting stigma from sexual behavior (layered stigma) The concept of stigma applies when five elements converge: labeling, stereotyping, separation, status loss, and discrimination. 10
11 11 Conceptual Framework of HIV Stigma While none of other social aspects is as powerful as sex, this symbolic charge is due to the association between HIV and sexual behavior, resulting in a spoiled identity Deviation from normal and acceptable social attributes Personal factors such as: prejudices, values, and beliefs, contribute to the sub-standard care of PLHVA members of vulnerable populations
12 Conceptual Framework of HIV Stigma Stigma has a negative impact on social interaction, employment opportunities, emotional wellbeing, and self-perception HIV stigma is not an static concept, but a process associated with other stigmas, such as stigmas surrounding non-heterosexual orientation or being a sex worker 12
13 13 Interventions against Stigma and Discrimination Interventions have to be designed according to the needs of local and national contexts Interventions combine biomedical, behavioral, and structural elements to reduce immediate risks and vulnerabilities Involving affected communities, promoting human rights, and gender equality and work synergistically at different levels (individual, family, and society).
14 14 Structural Interventions Against Stigma and Discrimination Specifically structural interventions seek to change social, political and environmental factors: social exclusion restricts access to appropriate services, and increases vulnerability Structural interventions include also access to health services and prevention without stigma and discrimination, raising awareness among justice and police operators, improvement of legislation, education systems, and media sensitization
15 15 Structural Interventions against Stigma and Discrimination Have a multisectoral approach depending on political decisions, and seek to change the conditions surrounding individuals that affect their decisions These interventions allow enabling environments to reduce stigma and discrimination
16 16 Some examples Vivo con VIH ( I Live with HIV ): Experience Art against Stigma and Discrimination in Health Services Health care providers in hospitals must wear a T- shirt printed with the word "HIV" as if they were wearing the stigma and care for their patients. This symbol VIH (the Spanish acronym for HIV) is transformed by artists to VIDA (life). Stigma is then transformed into hope.

19 Human Rights, Sex Work and HIV/ AIDS in Peru: This project promotes capacity building of sex workers (women and transgender women), participation in the design, implementation and project decision-making. The project operates at multiple levels: structural, community and individual level, with constant advocacy for sex workers, and human rights efforts at national, regional and local level. 19

22 22 LGBT Communities, human rights and HIV / AIDS This project seeks to highlight the respect for human rights in order to reduce vulnerabilities generated by stigma and discrimination against LGBT communities, including people living with HIV/AIDS in three cities of the Peruvian coast (Lima, Callao, and Ica).
23 Conclusions and Lessons Learned 23 Stigma is rooted in the lives of those who stigmatize and who are stigmatized When someone is stigmatized and discriminated he/she will experience many restrictions in his/her social life The stigmatized person internalizes and accepts this rejection With respect to health services, stigma constitutes a major obstacle to the quality of care and support that people living with HIV require.
24 Conclusions and Lessons Learned 24 Sexual Orientation, gender identity, and HIV/AIDS-related stigma leads to discrimination which is crystallized in abuse, neglect and even violence Interventions such as the ones we have presented are needed, as well as biomedical and behavioral interventions, and those efforts should be coordinated, extended, and evaluated.
