Enhanced Protection for Children Affected by AIDS, Paperback Book

Enhanced Protection for Children Affected by AIDS Paperback

Paperback

  • Information

Description

Children affected by or living with AIDS are particularly vulnerable to risks of neglect, exploitation and abuse, when parents or caregivers are often absent due to illness or death, or because they are stigmatised within their communities.

This publication serves as a companion paper to "The Framework for the Protection, Care and Support of Orphans and Vulnerable Children Living in a World with HIV and AIDS", and like the Framework, it has been widely endorsed by international and non-governmental partners.

It outlines the priority actions needed to reduce the vulnerability of children affected by or living with AIDS and calls for enhanced social and legal protection, and alternative care and support services underpinned by efforts to address the silence and stigma that allow discrimination and exploitation of children to continue.
