Abstract
This paper investigates how body mapping workshops, for HIV positive persons, can be used as an effective tool for therapy as well as advocacy to address AIDS-related stigma. The paper explores how two core theoretical issues, namely the construction of stigma and the reception of stigma, relate to the socio-psychological processes of stigma.
