Youth and HIV/AIDS in Africa Today
|
December 17, 2002 — Today, Africa counts
12 million children that are AIDS orphans.
As the life expectancy on the continent
continues to fall, and 9,000 Africans are
infected by HIV every day, these numbers are
expected to swell for years to come. Such
grim statistics translate themselves into
millions of shattered lives among Africa’s
youth, as HIV/AIDS seeps into the realm of
every aspect of their daily lives. The
future course of the HIV/AIDS epidemic
depends on the efforts mounted today to
prevent infection among young people.

AIDS Blunts Progress in Education
|
May 7, 2002 — HIV/AIDS kills teachers
faster than they can be trained, makes
orphans of students, and threatens to derail
efforts by highly-infected countries to get
all boys and girls into primary school by
2015, a new World Bank report warns. And yet
a good basic education ranks among the most
effective, and cost-effective means of
preventing HIV. Education offers a window of
hope unlike any other for countries,
communities, and families to escape the
deadly grip of HIV/AIDS. For more
information, see Education
and HIV/AIDS: A Window of Hope (1.6MB
