Key Insights
The report presents three scenarios for the future of education in sub-Saharan Africa in light of the AIDS epidemic. The first scenario, “Africa Overcomes,” suggests a less severe impact of AIDS on education due to overestimated HIV projections and effective interventions. The second scenario, “Whirlpool,” depicts a grim outcome where increasing poverty and HIV rates undermine education goals. The third scenario, “Africa Takes a Stand,” envisions a mixed impact with strong African leadership seeking homegrown solutions to the AIDS crisis and questioning donor-driven policies.
