Leste TOWARDS AN ECUMENICAL VISION Chaos is the context of Nina Nayoan’s internship on community development with the Student Christian Movement (SCM). The SCM has quite a mixture of people from both West and East Timor. During the violence and fighting, most SCMers fled to the villages. There are now roughly 130,000 Internally Displaced People (IDP), and they are all living in make-shift tents, some provided by the Catholic Church, or in compounds such as parks and empty pieces of land which are patrolled by either the Australian troops or the UN troops. |
