dc.description.abstract | This paper outlines the major impacts of HIV/AIDS on the social and economic structures of households and communities in sub-Saharan Africa. It continues with a discussion of some of the most significant responses, some organized by communities themselves, others facilitated by outside agencies. The evidence used
in the paper reflects the current state of research and analysis. In some instances,
the evidence might be called “best practices.” In other instances, the evidence is
still emerging, and clear directions remain to be further explored. Following a brief introduction, section II summarizes the relevant and current information on the social impacts of HIV/AIDS. It includes discussion of changes in family structure and the multiple impacts on women, girls and boys. Section III deals with the income costs of the epidemic on households and communities. Section IV identifies some key responses at all levels that seek to mitigate the impacts of HIV/AIDS. | en |
