Book Description
Currently 12% of children in Botswana have lost one or both parents, largely due to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Traditional institutions of care, such as the extended family foster system, are overburdened and becoming unviable. Despite this, orphanages are typically seen as the last resort institution for orphaned children and few studies have examined the inner dynamics of these organizations. This thesis examines the institutional culture of a large orphanage in southern Botswana. Based on 12 weeks of ethnographic research I explore different cultural models of institutional care-giving and childhood among three key informants at this institution. I argue that these multiple models conflict and resonate in complex ways. Further development of this kind of research will be essential for improving the well-being of AIDS orphans in Botswana and perhaps the rest of Sub-Saharan Africa.

Book Description
The Human Sciences Research Council was commissioned by the WK Kellogg Foundation to develop and implement a five-year intervention project focusing on orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) in southern Africa. In collaboration with several partner organisations, the project currently focuses on how children, families, and communities in Botswana, South Africa, and Zimbabwe are coping with the impact of HIV/AIDS. The aim of the project is to develop models of best practise so as to enhance and improve support structures for OVC in the southern African region as a whole.
