- W274645905 abstract "AbstractThe objective of this study was to explore and establish the Sustainability of the role of extended families on orphan care in the era of HIV and AIDS in the Zimbabwean Society. Five orphans and five extended family heads were purposively drawn from Mucheke suburb, in Masvingo City. An intensive ethnographic research interrogative approach through observations, interviews, and open ended questions, was to get a better perspective on the sustainability of the role of extended families on orphan care in the era of HIV and AIDS. Interviews were conducted with orphans and extended family heads. Ethical considerations were observed by the researchers. An integrative framework lens namely Ubuntu, Bronfenbrenner's bio- ecological systems and Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory was mainly. Data was analysed manually through hand coding and categorizing of ideas, which eventually formed themes to this research study. The findings revealed that extended family heads are encountering accommodation problems due to overwhelming number of orphans. Additionally, they are aged to provide for quality care to orphans due to an increase in the number of orphans as confirmed by UNAIDS (2004). The study also established that extended family heads needed traditional ways of caring fororphans to be revived since this was viewed as another component of easing the burden of orphans caring on extended family heads. The study was limited in its geographical coverage and scope, hence, the findings can neither be generalised to other provinces nor to the entire population of Zimbabwe. In view of that, it is therefore, recommended that, the study should be replicated on a national sample of orphans. In this way, a broader and more comprehensive perspectives and understanding will be gained on the Sustainability of the role of extended families on orphan care in the era of HIV and AIDS in the Zimbabwean Society.Keywords: sustainability; extended families; orphan; care; dynamicsINTRODUCTIONThe study established that extended family heads are facing a lot of financial constraints, impinging on their provision for quality care. Additionally, foster care parents are aged to provide for quality care to HIV and AIDS orphans. The foster care parents observed that through intervention and empowerment strategies, networking and partnership, their plight for financial assistance to promote orphan care would be alleviated.The study also established that foster care parents needed traditional ways of caring fororphans to be revived since this was viewed as another component of easing the burden of orphans caring on extended family heads. In light of the above a partnership framework to promote wellness of orphans was developed which will bring insight into the ways extended families are rendering support and care to orphans. Through this partnership framework, the extended family heads will be seen willing to care for more orphans. The study was limited in its geographical coverage and scope, the findings of the research can neither be generalised to other provinces nor to the entire population of Zimbabwe. In view of that, it is therefore, recommended that, the study should be replicated on a national sample of orphans. In this way, a broader and more comprehensive perspectives and understanding of how extended family heads are involved in the caring of orphan wellness will be revealed. This study recommends further research study to monitor and evaluate the developed framework to assess its effectiveness and success in strengthening and improving the ways in which extended families promote the wellness of orphans. The study recommends that the idea of projects like Isheanopa, be extended into other schools within the city, where the teachers will engage into projects to support orphans, this could go a long way in promoting orphan wellness in the City.BACKGROUNDHIV and AIDS in most African countries continues to be the leading cause of death as well as a major contributor to the increasing number of orphans in the world (Tsheko, Odirile, Bainame, Segwabe, Nair & Ntshebe, 2007). …" @default.
