HIV/AIDS stigma is a global issue and a serious problem in African countries. Although prevalence remains high in this region, no detailed study has yet been carried out to determine and characterize this problem in Burundi. Using a qualitative analysis based on an extensive series of 114 interviews, we describe the main characteristics of HIV stigma in the country. The results of our study indicate that the problem of HIV/AIDS stigma is widespread in Burundian society, as all participants in the research reported having experienced some kind of HIV stigma. The seven dimensions of stigma identified in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in Burundi are physical violence, verbal violence, marginalization, discrimination, self-stigma, fear and insecurity, and healthcare provider stigma. These dimensions of stigma can be experienced through different manifestations, which have been characterized in this study, revealing that the problem of stigma in PLWHA is still an important issue in Burundi.

HIV / AIDS has become a phenomenon in the social environment of society for the last few years. Fear of stigma and discrimination from local people makes PLWHAs reluctant to reveal themselves. People with HIV who have revealed themselves must face the risk of discrimination and stigma that must be experienced in everyday life. This study aims to explain interpersonal communication among PLWHA who have done self-disclosure. The method that’s being used is a qualitative approach with case study method. The case study was conducted at ODHA Berhak Sehat Community. The data collection is done by conducting in-depth interviews with informants. Subjects in this study were people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) who had opened their status for some time. In addition interviews were also conducted with specialists in sexually transmitted diseases as a research triangulator. It was found that PLWHA who have revealed status with the closest people cause a sense of trust. PLWHA do not receive discrimination, but rather supportiveness. And, an open - minded attitude from the closest person. Furthermore, the results of the study are discussed in this article. HIV/AIDS telah menjadi fenomena di lingkungan sosial masyarakat selama beberapa tahun terakhir. Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) cenderung mendapat stigma dan diskriminasi dari masyarakat setempat. Hal ini membuat ODHA enggan mengungkapkan diri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana komunikasi antarpribadi ODHA yang sudah melakukan pengungkapan diri (self-disclosure). Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, dengan metode studi kasus. Studi kasus dilakukan pada Komunitas ODHA Berhak Sehat. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan wawancara mendalam dengan tiga ODHA yang sudah mengungkapkan status kesehatannya. Selain itu wawancara juga dilakukan kepada dokter spesialis penyakit menular seksual sebagai triangulator penelitian. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa komunikasi antarpribadi ODHA yang sudah mengungkapkan status dengan orang terdekat menimbulkan rasa kepercayaan. ODHA tidak mendapat diskriminasi, melainkan sikap suportif. ODHA juga mendapati sikap terbuka dari orang terdekat.

<p>This paper aims at describing the findings of a health education programme that enhances the knowledge and communication skills of health-care workers who serve people living with HIV / AIDS on HAART in Namibia. Namibian health-care workers are unable to provide quality health care services to people who are living with HIV / AIDS (PLWHA) when they do not have the necessary knowledge, as well as adequate interpersonal communication and counselling skills. In a health care facility system, all patients either come from the community, or are referred from the wards or other departments by health-care workers. The health care worker as a sender conveys information (messages), and a patient (receiver) is expected to comprehend these messages and to respond by giving feedback to the sender who, in turn, provides feedback until the communication process is completed. The process should take place in a conducive environment without any interference, such as noise, to allow the swift completion of the communication process. The messages that both parties convey should be clear, accurate, coherent, and concise. This article covered the following: background, methods, ethical measures, results (participants’ responses) conclusions and recommendations.</p>
