Protecting Africa’s future Livelihood based social protection
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.
