HIV/AIDs Impact Mitigation thro' Community-Based Agricultural Development
HIV/AIDs Impact Mitigation thro' Community-Based Agricultural Development - Project
Project overview
Much of the land in the Machakos District in the Eastern Province of Kenya is marginal and suffers from periodic drought, which impacts upon the population?s ability to earn a living from agriculture. The spread of HIV/AIDS has made the situation much worse as the epidemic is affecting the most productive family members. When these family members fall ill or die, the loss of agricultural labour and knowledge affects household food security and income.
