tailieunhanh - The Impact of HIV-AIDS on Land Rights

Based on three village case studies from different parts of Kenya, this co-authored study explores the relationship between HIV/AIDS and land rights focusing on women as a socially vulnerable group. The study compares affected with non-affected households and HIV/AIDS emerges as a significant but not primary cause of tenure insecurity. | The Impact Of Hiv Aids On Land Rights Case Studies From Kenya Free download from Michael Aliber Cherryl Walker Mumbi Machera Paul Kamau Charles Omondi Karuti Kanyinga mHSRC Publishers Free download from Compiled by the Integrated Rural and Regional Development Research Programme Human Sciences Research Council and the Food and Agriculture Organisation FAO Published by HSRC Publishers Private Bag X9182 Cape Town 8000 South Africa 2004 Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations In published edition Human Sciences Research Council First published 2004 All rights reserved.
