NOTES

1. The terms in parentheses are for Kisoro and Tororo, respectively.

2. The final year in primary school in Uganda.

3. The defilement law was introduced in Uganda in 1990 as a measure to safeguard especially young girls against older men at the peak of the AIDS epidemic, but in reality most older men were often in a position to get themselves out of trouble by bribing police and other officials. As a consequence, the defilement law hit young men and women and their families hardest (Parikh 2012). Under the defilement law, a person over eighteen years who had sex with a person under eighteen had committed a capital offense. For many years this meant that the majority of inmates in Ugandan prisons and remand homes were young men accused of defilement (Meinert 2005). Often the girl’s family took the case to the police in the hope that they would be able to settle some kind of compensation with the boy’s family, but as soon as the case was filed and official, the families were not allowed to negotiate compensation directly.
