Dr Hans W. Florin (photo) is appointed WACC General Secretary. At a ground-breaking meeting of the Central Committee in Malta, plans are approved for a Periodicals Development Programme, a Group Media Development Unit, and a new emphasis on strengthening WACC’s regional associations. WACC also establishes the Black Press Fund to support anti-apartheid newspapers in South Africa.

The WACC global office moves to 122 King’s Road, London, in the heart of “swinging” Chelsea.
