HIV/AIDS and Working Children in Nepal
PDF File Size: 524 KB | Download   
There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that in Nepal (1) increasing numbers of children are being driven into the labour market by the HIV infections and deaths of their parents, and (2) that working children have a high risk of contracting HIV. This growing double scenario of Nepali children affected by the HIV infections and deaths of their parents (HIV-affected children), and children who are at risk of infection or are already infected (HIV-infected children), poses a challenge to child labour programming.
