Download or read book Women s Property Rights HIV and AIDS Domestic Violence written by Human Sciences Research Council and published by HSRC Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revealing how women in many developing countries do not have the right to own or inherit property, this monograph clarifies the role of tenure security in protecting against and mitigating the effects of HIV amongst women and domestic violence. Exploring these linkages in Amajuba, South Africa, and Iganga, Uganda, this qualitative work based on peer-reviewed scientific studies and personal interviews with native women argues that property ownership, while not easily linked to women’s ability to prevent HIV infection, can nonetheless mitigate the impact of AIDS and enhance a woman’s ability to leave a violent situation. An invaluable resource for policymakers, western donors, nongovernmental organization workers, and academics, this analysis details the current land reform efforts as well as HIV/AIDS and domestic-violence policies in both countries, in Africa as a whole, and beyond.

Download or read book Women s Land Rights Privatization in Eastern Africa written by Birgit Englert and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2008 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are women's fragile land rights in Africa being eroded in a period of privatisation and land reforms sponsored by the World Bank? Changing global employment and trade patters and the HIV/AIDS epidemic has affected women in particular. A complexity is that women's and men's interests within households are both joint and separate, yet many land reform programmes are based on the notion of a unitary household in which resources benefit the whole family. Today new land market opportunities also tend to put women at a disadvantage, just as they were under colonialism. Women's secondary rights to land are being extinguished. The detailed, local level research in this volume not only challenges the status quo, but demonstrates that another world is possible and documents the many ways women in Eastern Africa are finding to ensure their rights to land.

Book excerpt: This rapid pace at which the epidemic moves through the society and the expanding numbers of HIV/AIDS-related deaths together with the socioeconomic impact provide impetus for further analysis of the relationship between HIV/AIDS and the various segments of not only the economy but also population in a broader manner. [...] However, the intensifying responses to the disease have either focused on prevention, care treatment and impacts on limited sectors and people or the nature of the disease, the ways it is transmitted and the reasons why it is so devastating in its impacts (CODESRIA 2003; Okuro 2003). [...] The paper particularly seeks to answer the question: to what extent has the emergence of HIV/AIDS impacted widows' and orphans' land rights, particularly the ability to hold, use and transact land at the local level? The paper relies on testimonies from HIV/AIDS infected and affected households. [...] The prevalence rate of HIV/AIDS in the division, according to the latest District Development Plan (2005), stands at 38 percent and is among the highest in the country. [...] What emerges from the discussion above is that HIV/AIDS narrows livelihood options and the disposal of productive assets and the depletion of savings to meet medical and other expenses are becoming a visible consequence of the pandemic in Kombewa.
