As indicated by our colleagues from the Strategic Information Management Division of UNAIDS, the questions recommended for addition will be used to construct three indicators deemed relevant and promising by the UNAIDS MERG, including one that is part of the Core GARPR indicators.

The 6 new questions recommended, together with the modified question 932, would serve as important ways to measure progress towards Target 8 of the 2011 Political Declaration on HIV and AIDS (available at http://www.unaids.org/en/media/unaids/contentassets/document s/document/2011/06/20110610_un_a-res-65-277_en.pdf), by which UN member states have committed to eliminate stigma and discrimination.

These additions would not overburden the HIV/AIDS module of the questionnaire, as we are also suggesting the removal of 3 questions (933-935) which have provide to be unreliable measures, or have reached high level of agreement and can not be used to measure change over time.
