The Martin Fisher Foundation (MFF) together with Stiggy the stigmasaurus, has produced a new set of videos about making HIV Stigma History.

These include up-to-date information on the impact HIV treatment has on transmission and on the effectiveness of treatment in general.

One video looks at HIV disclosure at work to tackle common prejudice.

One involves disclosing HIV to your family and another includes interviews where HIV positive people discuss the impact that stigma has on our lives.
A related social media campaign is using the hashtag:

#makingHIVstigmahistory
