| dc.description.abstract | With more than 56 million orphans, Sub-Saharan Africa is the most affected region
worldwide regarding the number of orphans needing care (UNICEF, 2014). An
orphan is hereby defined as a child under the age of 18, who lost one or both parents due to death from any cause (UNICEF, 2006). For example, in Tanzania, one in four
girls and one in five boys were orphaned in 2009 (UNICEF, 2011). As a result of
poverty, political conflicts, and the HIV/AIDS pandemic, the traditional system of
care within extended families is overburdened by the rising numbers of orphans. | en_US |
