African Grandmothers Tribunal: Seeking justice at the frontlines of the AIDS crisis
In sub-Saharan Africa Grandmothers are the primary caregivers for a large portion of children left orphaned and vulnerable by HIV and AIDS. Their ability to care for these children, and for themselves, is greatly compromised by the effects of gender- and age-based discrimination. This documentary follows three grandmothers as they travel from their homes in Uganda and Swaziland to Canada to testify in a People's Tribunal which sheds light on the urgent need for better protection of African grandmothers' human rights. These women send a timely message that a rights-based response to the HIV and AIDS crisis is necessary to build a sustainable future for sub-Saharan Africa.
