Chapter 8 in AIDS and South Africa: the Social Expression of a Pandemic, 2004, pp 161-175 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The scourge of HIV/AIDS has affected all aspects of South African society. For the university-aged population, a number of factors have contributed to making the crisis particularly acute. This chapter highlights specific challenges faced by tertiary institutions in South Africa. In addition, a number of programmes developed specifically at the University of Cape Town that directly target university-age students are discussed.
