Cultural Programs

Foreign volunteers who would like to interact with the youth, young and experience life in Uganda,VMO offers cultural immersion and language orientation programs.  

If you decide to participate in the cultural immersion and language orientation program, you will have the opportunity to interact with people who are eager to tell you and learn about your culture, and travel experiences in Uganda. This will be of great benefit as our youth have little or no chances to meet and live with people from other cultures. 

The intercultural dimension that your presence will generate will also be welcomed and valued by the community. The support that the you will give to our youth,staff, particularly those you will work with, will be much appreciated.
