This paper emphasises the distinct needs of HIV/AIDS orphaned and vulnerable adolescents. It summarises the limited studies and programmes which are working primarily with adolescents orphaned due to AIDS, and highlights four case studies:
- Cambodia (Koh Kong) – community-based integrated services
- Zambia – youth involvement and service
- Zimbabwe – camp activities and psychosocial support
- Romania – group home
These case studies demonstrate different strategies for working with adolescent orphans and other youth vulnerable to HIV/AIDS, reflecting different cultural and programmatic approaches relevant to Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe.
