Agape Aids Control Programme
</b>
</p>
<p>Agape AIDS Control Program was established on 24th of January,
2006 as a
Community-based Organization (CBO) working to cover the Shinyanga
Region
and later registered as an NGO on 24th June, 2009 by the Ministry
of
Community Development, Gender and Children. AACP is a
Non-partisan,
Non-Religious and Non-profit Organization geared at promoting
human rights
and Community Development
</p>
<p>In 2009, AACP came to realize that violation of Human Rights in
the
Community was a problem. Since then, AGAPE started working on four
core
programs which are; HIV/AIDS control and prevention, Child and
Youth
Protection, Legal Aid Services provision, and Prevention of Gender
Based
Violence, Child marriages and pregnancies. These core works
contribute to
the attainment of their Mission which is "to empower the Community
to
challenge Human Rights violation by strengthening their capacity
to improve
their resources of Income and reduce poverty, HIV/AIDS

the Vision
is "to see the Community is free from Human Rights Violation and
discrimination where Orphans and Vulnerable Children, Domestic

Women, Youth, PLWHAs and the Community at large live harmonious
happy life
and Dignity".

</p>
<h3>
Residency and Citizenship </h3>
<p><b>
Residency
</b>
</p>
<p>The majority of Cuso International volunteer applicants are
residing in
Canada at the time of application and during the pre-departure
process. Occasionally we received applications from volunteer
applicants
who are residing outside of Canada at the time of application. In
both
instances, between your application date and placement start date,
we must
be able to contact you and you must be able to contact us easily
and
promptly throughout the process.
</p>
<p>We may require your passport and would need to be aware of your
current
place of residence and any travel plans you may have during this
time. You
will also require unrestricted access to Canada during this time
for
assessment and training, as applicable.
</p>
<p><b>
Citizenship
</b>
</p>
<p>Leaving your country of residence can have significant effects on
your
citizenship status in that country. It is your responsibility to
research
the consequences of travelling to Canada during the pre-departure
process
if you are living outside of Canada and of leaving your country of
residence for a placement with the immigration authority where you
live.
</p>
<p>By applying to this placement, you accept full responsibility for
any
consequences related to your citizenship, residency and
immigration status
or penalties as a result of travel to an assessment day, training
course,
international placement or other Cuso International related
travel.
</p>
<p>You must check the implications that apply to you, but examples
include:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>Canadian permanent residents may need to make arrangements
with immigration
authorities before travelling. These arrangements allow them to
travel
without risk to their status in Canada. Without them, residency
status may
be withdrawn.<br>
</dd>
<dd>Citizens of other countries, including those visiting Canada
on a visa, may have travel restrictions.
