SELF 2005

WSCF is ecumenical, welcoming people from all Christian traditions and encouraging dialogue between students of different traditions. WSCF has members from Protestant, Orthodox, Pentecostal, Roman Catholic and Anglican traditions and from other faiths. The local and national groups that make up the federation are largely known as Student Christian Movements (SCMs).

The aims of the WSCF AP can be summarised in the words of Ahn Jae-Woong, a former Regional Secretary:

To train and nurture members to become

“academically advanced as students,
theologically equipped as Christians,
and ecumenically oriented as
church-related persons.”

To fulfill this, the WSCF AP carries out a wide range of programmes based on assessed needs of member movements and the current social realities.
