The workshop aimed to define the concept of social stigma and clarify the concept of stigma, which means the characteristic, which is the severe social rejection of a person or group of people for distinctive social reasons acceptable to the majority, so that the perpetrator of the matter causing the stigma is marked by it, and distinguished from the rest of the members of society. It was concluded from the workshop that the social stigma of drug addicts in the city of Diwaniyah is widespread as a social phenomenon with spatial dimensions that differ according to the cultural level of society and its acceptance of this category of the population, and that stigma has profound effects on their social integration, as stigma hinders Recovering from addiction and hindering seeking help and participating in treatment and contributes to increased fear of prejudice and discrimination and thus not receiving support, and stigma has an impact on mental health in terms of feelings of shame, low self-esteem and isolation, which further complicates the recovery journey.
