Descripción
Despite greater access to antiretroviral (ARV) drugs in southern Africa, the current HIV epidemic continues to result in increasing numbers of orphans and vulnerable children. As many as 50 % of all orphans under the age of 17 years, in many countries in the region, are a result of parents who have died of AIDS-related illnesses. According to bodies like UNAIDS, this level of AIDS-related orphanhood is expected to remain high until 2030.
