WACC launches online donation appeal to support congress 2008

By Teresia Mutuku, Communications Officer and Web Manager, WACC

WACC has launched an online donation appeal to support less privileged or marginalized people to take part in Congress 2008, a global meeting of communicators to be held in Cape Town, South Africa, October 6-10.

The focus is on women and youth, indigenous people, people living with disabilities and people living with HIV/AIDS, who are engaged in communication and peace initiatives in their communities.

WACC launched the initiative to try to ensure that communicators and peace activists from these priority groups are able to attend Congress 2008. It offers them a platform to share their experiences and vision of how to use communication as a means to promote sustainable peace in their communities.

WACC wishes to thank all those who have already supported this event in cash and kind.
