dc.descriptionIn 2006, an estimated total of 39.5 million people were living with HIV/AIDS, out of which 37.2 million were adults and 2.3 million were children under 15 years. Sub-Saharan Africa is the most affected region and home to more than 60 percent of all people living with HIV. An estimated 2.8 million people in the region became newly infected in 2006. During the same period 2.1 million adults and children died of AIDS, representing 72 percent of global AIDS deaths.1 Among its many devastating im pacts, the pandemic has made millions of children orphans or vulnerable. The most impacted region is sub-Saharan Africa, where in 2003 43 million children between 0-17 years were either single or double parent orphans. An estimated 28 percent of these children, or 12.3 million, were orphans resulting from the pandemic. Further, it is predicted that the number of orphans will rise over the next decade as parents living with HIV become sick and die from AIDS.2
