WCC Youth Internship Programme: The World Council of Churches welcomes young people (aged 18-30 years) to serve as interns in its Geneva offices.

Interns work in a World Council of Churches (WCC) programme for a one-year period. During this time, they gain work experience in an ecumenical field and are given the tools to take this back to the local level.

The second emphasis of the internship programme is on ecumenical formation and community-building: as a group, the interns learn how to work in a multicultural and multiconfessional environment.

Each intern also develops an ecumenical project to be implemented back in their home contexts.

By providing young people with a rich international experience of community-building, team work and ecumenical learning, this activity strengthens both local churches and the ecumenical movement as a whole.

World Council of Churches (WCC) looks for Interns who are committed to the ideals of the ecumenical movement, to bring their energy, commitment and fresh vision to a specific work assignment.

Dr. Kihumuro Apuuli, head of Uganda Aids Commision

Musa Bungudu, the Country  Director of UNAIDS, the UN body responsible for HIV/AIDS, told a joint press Conference at Parliament that unprotected sex and mother to child transmission are still leading dangers in the spread of HIV/AIDS.

He says much emphasis needs to put to see that the trend of unprotected sex and mother to child transmission of HIV are brought down in the Country and the World at large.

In a related devolopment the Uganda Aids Commission Director Dr Kihumuro Apuuli expressed fear that the AIDS scourge in Uganda is still growing high despite efforts by Government to sensitize the masses on preventive measures.

Dr. Kihumuro says the aids prevalence among the married couples, boda boda riders, prostitutes among others is still high and something must be done to bring the high prevalence down.

Dr Kihumuro also said the government must take over the funding of Aids programmes in the Country because most donor Countries are pulling out and other are threatening to pull out which he said puts a big risk especially to people who are now on treatment and cannot meet the cost of buying the life prolonging ARV drugs.
