In recent years,
emergency of orphaned children in sub - Sahara Africa stems from children
losing their parents due HIV/AIDS and constant civil wars.Uganda was among
the first hard hit countries. It was heavily hit by HIV/AIDs Pandemic in
1980's and 90's and the war. Whereas the scourges have been contained, they
have left millions of orphans that the country is struggling to help. The
first AIDS case was diagnosed in Uganda in 1982. The ministry of health
estimated 1,050,555 people living with HIV/AIDS by the end of December 2001
and over 940,000 HIV/AIDS related death since the onset of the epidemic
in the country.
