Since 1995, WACC has publicly recognised the work of communicators who have upheld its principles and values while working for greater social justice.
WACC’s 50th anniversary was an occasion to recognize a further six women and six men who have significantly contributed to WACC’s life and work.
Each new Honorary Life Member has a lengthy career. More complete biographical information can be found on WACC’s web site here.
