Africa’s Orphaned Generations

Summary: AIDS has already orphaned more than 11 million African children, half of whom are between the ages of 10 and 14. The countries that will see the largest increases in the number of orphans – Botswana, Lesotho and Swaziland -- are those with HIV prevalence levels already higher than previously thought possible, exceeding 30 per cent.pdf: www.unicef.org/media/files/orphans.pdf
