Among Kenya’s total population of 32.7 million, more than a million people are living with HIV and AIDS. Despite recent declines in HIV prevalence rates in Kenya, women bear a disproportionate burden of the disease, comprising 60 percent of people living with HIV and AIDS. Women are largely marginalized in Kenya, and the country’s efforts to combat the pandemic have failed to address women’s issues such as treatment of HIV-positive widows, property rights and domestic violence, all of which contribute to the spread of HIV and AIDS.
