Good question, because there are two quite different organizations
with confusingly similar names:<br>
<br>
1) World Alliance for Christian Communication (WACC)<br>
<a href="http://www.wacc.org.uk/" target="_blank">www.wacc.org.uk/</a><br>
<b><br>
</b><b>2) World Association for Christian Communication</b><b>
(WACC)</b><b><br>
</b><b><a href="http://waccglobal.org/" target="_blank">http://waccglobal.org/</a></b><br>
<br>
The World Association for Christian Communication is a professional
organization, with a membership in general close or overlapping with
churches in the World Council of Churches.<br>
<br>
The World Association for Christian Communication provides the
following self description:<b><br>
</b><b><br>
</b><b>Vision: Communication for all</b><b><br>
</b>
<b><br>
</b><b>
Mission</b><b><br>
</b>
<b><br>
</b><b>
The World Association for Christian Communication (WACC) is an
international organization that promotes communication as a basic
human right, essential to people’s dignity and community. Rooted
in Christian faith, WACC works with all those denied the right to
communicate because of status, identity, or gender. It advocates
full access to information and communication, and promotes open
and diverse media. WACC strengthens networks of communicators to
advance peace, understanding and justice.</b><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
