How can the social, health, and economic needs of those affected by HIV/AIDS be addressed?
66 pages
The paper presents a USAID/Kenya and UNICEF/Kenya assessment of the situation of families, children, and communities affected by HIV/AIDS. The paper states that the social, health, and economic needs of those affected by HIV/AIDS can be addressed through two operationally separate projects: one that specialises in mobilising community support for families affected by HIV/AIDS, the other that fortifies household economic resources by providing microfinance services. Based on the assessment, the paper says that USAID/Kenya projects should:
- Build local capacity to address the needs of children affected by HIV/AIDS;
- Integrate orphan and vulnerable children issues into other development programs and sectors;
- Link prevention, care, and support activities;
- Incorporate comprehensive adolescent programs.
