The vulnerability of children in Haiti has increased dramatically since the earthquake in January 2010. Prior to the earthquake, the prevalence of orphans and at-risk children was high but since the earthquake, more than 1 million people-with more than 380,000 children remaining displaced and living in over 1200 displacement sites. These existing conditions leave orphans and at-risk children vulnerable to exploitation, abuse, and increased risk of HIV/AIDS. This article will focus on the complex issues affecting orphans and at-risk children and the intersection with HIV/AIDS and human rights. Specific recommendations by United Nations Children's Fund are discussed. Nursing in Haiti must address the policy-related and population-specific approaches for the care of children living with or affected by HIV/AIDS.
自2010年1月地震以来,海地儿童的脆弱性急剧增加。在地震之前,孤儿和高危儿童的比例就很高,但自地震以来,超过100万人流离失所,其中超过38万名儿童仍无家可归,生活在1200多个流离失所者安置点。这些现状使孤儿和高危儿童容易受到剥削、虐待,感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的风险也有所增加。本文将重点关注影响孤儿和高危儿童的复杂问题,以及与艾滋病毒/艾滋病和人权的交叉点。文中还讨论了联合国儿童基金会的具体建议。海地的护理工作必须针对与政策相关且针对特定人群的方法,以照顾感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病或受其影响的儿童。
