Preliminary survey on the root causes of attacks and discrimination against persons with albinism 2016, para. 53
Paragraphe
Paragraph text
The livelihood of parents of children with albinism has also been affected by these atrocities. Owing to the need to stay at home and protect their children, parents do not tend their crops or go to market. Similarly, adults with albinism avoid attending to their farms and gardens as they used to. This has driven families already living in poverty into dire straits.
