    Lillian Masuga is a development expert working for an NGO in Uganda to help girls complete secondary education. She discusses the importance of girls staying in school, as those who marry early and leave school early tend to have more children in poorer families with fewer opportunities. Many children in Uganda have lost parents to HIV/AIDS, making it harder for them to stay in school, continuing the cycle of poverty. While progress has been made in reducing HIV infection rates in Uganda, more work remains, and Lillian remains optimistic about the future if awareness and prevention efforts can continue targeting schools.
