tackling discrimination

Understanding cultural contexts is also extremely important when thinking of effective ways to tackle stigma and end discrimination. Interventions must involve massive public education, using well-known public figures, especially state officials, to denounce discrimination, as well as the re-examination of policies to ensure fair treatment of at-risk populations and PLHA. Many societies across the world have devised innovative ways of dealing with stigma and discrimination, including leadership training, media advocacy, dissemination of information, and use of effective legislation.

I think the best way to tackle discrimination, is to start from within the household. Working from the inside out would bring the most effective solution. Families should discuss issues regarding discrimination and try to educate their children about discrimination.
Educating children and making them carry a positive attitude regarding the people around them would help the society as a whole.
