Children living with, or affected by Human immuno-deficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIVAIDS) the world over face myriad human rights challenges related to their education (UNAIDS, 2015). The responsible factors emanates from within and without their households. The paper seeks to analyze the link between the right to education and HIVAIDS in Kenya. It delves into three questions. Firstly, what is the link between HIVAIDS and the children right to education? Secondly, what does the children rights to education entail? Thirdly, can some educational imperatives augment children rights to education in ways that makes them stronger socio-legal vaccine against HIVAIDS? The paper proposes that the law ought to engender a more inclusive education system which entails the entrenchment and implementation of HIVAIDS education policies into the main school curricula, teacher training and civic education to the society through the media and outreach with a view to sensitizing the communities at the grassroots levels. |
