The orphan problem
An assessment of the prevalence of orphans and the magnitude of their problems and the extent to which HIV-1 is contributing to this was done in a rural population in South-West Uganda with an HIV-1 seroprevalence of 8% among adults. Slightly over 10% of children aged less than 15 years were reported to have lost one or both parents. Loss of the father alone (6.3%) was more common than loss of the mother alone (2.8%). Generally orphans were livin…
Methods used to study household coping strategies in rural South West Uganda
This paper describes the data collection methods used in a longitudinal study of the coping strategies of 27 households in three villages in the study area of the MRC/ODA Research Programme on AIDS in Uganda.

The extended family and support for people with Aids in a rural population in south west Uganda
It is commonly assumed that the extended family in Africa provides a safety net for individuals in times of need. This paper examines this assumption using data on the care of people with AIDS in a rural population in South West Uganda. Over a six month period data were collected by counsellors on the care given to 30 (17 women, 13 men) AIDS patients by their families. In 27 of the 30 cases there was evidence of limited care. Various reasons were…

The development of a community-based HIV/Aids counselling service in a rural area in Uganda
This paper describes the evolution of a counselling service in the context of an HIV/AIDS research programme in rural Uganda. The background to AIDS counselling both in Europe/America and in Africa is outlined first, and the cultural context of the programme explained. The evolution of the counselling procedure is then described and village case studies are used to illustrate the development and the difficulties that have been faced in finding an…
