Description
INTRODUCTION "A child born in Africa faces more health risks than a child born in other parts of the world. Such a child has more than a 50% chance of being malnourished, a high risk of being HIV-positive at birth while malaria, diarrhoeal diseases, and acute respiratory infections account for 51% of deaths. A child born in the African region is more likely to lose his/ her mother due to complications in childbirth or HIV/AIDS while that child has a life-expectancy of just 47 years and is very likely--at least once in his/ her short life--to be affected by drought, famine, flood or civil war, or become a refugee" (1).
