UNICEF, USAID and ONUSIDA,

Le VIH/SIDA a privé de parents ou rendu vulnérables des millions d’enfants. La région la plus durement touchée est l’Afrique subsaharienne, où l’on estime à 12,3 milions le nombre d’enfants étant orphelins à cause du SIDA. La disparition des parents n’est pas la seule répercussion qu’a le VIH/SIDA sur les enfants. Parmi les autres enfants rendus vulnérables par le VIH/SIDA figurent ceux qui ont un parent malade, qui vivent dans des ménages pauvres prenant en charge des orphelins, qui sont victimes de discrimination du fait de la séropositivité d’un membre de leur famille ou qui sont eux-mêmes séropositifs. Par conséquent, les programmes ne peuvent être exclusivement destinés aux enfants orphelins à cause du SIDA mais doivent s’adresser aux communautés où le VIH/SIDA exacerbe la vulnérabilité des enfants et des adolescents.
