The initiative, championed by the Trinidad and Tobago Community for Positive Women (TTCW+), held its inaugural meeting on May 14, 2024, marking the beginning of discussions by the appointed committee. The Stigma Index 2.0, an international survey tool, aims to investigate and gather data on factors contributing to stigma against Persons Living with HIV (PLHIV).
