The Potential Demographic Impact Of Hiv/Aids In The Pacific, Dennis A. Ahlburg, Heidi J. Larson, Tim Brown

The number of HIV infections and cases of AIDS reported in the Pacific Island nations is growing steadily.

Yet, despite its impact on human development, adolescence has been sidelined as a research and policy subject in developing countries. While all adolescents deserve our attention, the needs of adolescent girls in the developing world are particularly pressing. This monograph focuses on these girls, presenting statistics to examine the social and economic context of their …
