My doctoral thesis examines the psycho-emotional impact of HIV/AIDS on rural primary school students in Zimbabwe to find ways of intervention which will enable students to learn more effectively, despite the on-going epidemic. I hope this will bring a clearer understanding of how education is being affected – a prerequisite to educational planning that will be most effective in implementing meaningful change. I intend to return to Zimbabwe to improve the education of children in the rural areas.
