Internships in Africa

Talking today on Facebook with one of the people from kampala Junior Team who is studying for a social care qualification. He's obliged to do an internship for his course and today is educating youth about Aids prevention.

But he's under stress because there's no pay for his internship and he's hungry.

It reminded me of letters here in the UK from a University offering me funding to take on an intern.

If we want to help prevent HIV in Africa through education, why aren't we investing in the people that go hungry to make a difference?
