@SpireJim Thank Dr. You are one of my grateful role models. Please bring some more short courses online!!! The world is yearning for knowledge. Some of us need these short courses to keep our brains active.

[Jim Spire Ssentongo @SpireJim]

The response has been overwhelming! While we might not be able to take more than 85, so far we have 250 applicants! This thirst for knowledge on critical thinking and social intelligence is some candle of hope. After the deadline, we shall inform the applicants. No worries if not taken this time, we shall have more arrangements soon. Thank you.

The week officially opened with a powerful keynote by Rev. Fr. Benedict Wakabi, inviting deep reflection on identity and purpose within Caritas.
Drawing from Genesis, he posed two timeless questions:
“Where are you?” (Gen 3:9)
“Where is your brother?” (Gen 4:9)

@Caritas_Ug calls on Caritas Institutions and partners to support Catholic owned media houses. This was during Caritas week 2026 at Speak courts Hotel in Jinja. It was agreed that all Caritas organisations and archdiocesan partners commit to support @uctvuganda programs.
