NIH
News Release, August 28, 2002
Fogarty International Center Announces New Research
Program in Stigma and Global Health
Summary
The purpose of the
Stigma and Global Health Research Program is to
stimulate interdisciplinary, investigator-initiated research
on the role of stigma in health, and on how to intervene to
prevent or mitigate its negative effects on the health and
welfare of individuals, groups and societies world-wide.
The
objectives of this program are to encourage research across a
variety of scientific disciplines including the biomedical,
social and behavioral sciences, to elucidate the etiology of
stigma in relation to public health as well as to develop and
test interventions to mitigate the negative effects of stigma
on health outcomes. Studies may examine stigma and public
health in domestic, international and cross-cultural contexts,
with an emphasis on studies that are relevant to global health
issues. Applicants are encouraged to undertake
interdisciplinary studies, where possible, using behavioral,
social and biomedical science approaches.
