Introduction: (15 mins) Say, “People living with HIV/AIDS have the same rights as anyone who is not infected by HIV/AIDS.” With a partner ask students to list down at least 10 basic human rights. Ask the class to tell you what these would be. b. Main Activity: (20 mins) Say, “Stigma is when we say something hurtful about someone living with HIV/AIDS. Discrimination is when we treat someone with HIV/AIDS differently.” Say, “Words of stigmatisation and discrimination that hurt PLWHA very much.” In pairs students must write words and phrases that stigmatise and discriminate PLWHA in their work books. Words that Stigmatise PLWHA E.g. People with HIV are sinners Words that Discriminate PLWHA E.g. You can’t work here – you have HIV Ask students to share these with the class. c. Conclusion: (15 mins) Ask the students to work on their own and empathise how you would feel if a friend, brother or sister, father, mother, son or daughter told you they were HIV positive. How would you feel Reflect this own your own. Write down how you would feel, how they would feel and what you would say or do. Ask the students to share their thoughts with a friend. 76
Department of Education TVET Division HIV/AIDS & STI Teacher Guide Say, “It is very important we fight stigma and discrimination. If people think that they might be rejected by their family and friends or lose their jobs if they are tested positive for HIV then they won’t get tested. In our culture family and community are very important. People rejected by their family or community get sick and die quickly. Stigma is against our Christian values and Melanesian tradition of love and care.” Finally, set a self study task. Ask students to write a prayer to start the next lesson about loving and caring for people living with HIV/AIDS. 77
