ACP Press Clubs

By ACP Press

KIGALI, Rwanda (ACP-IDN) - Leaders of press clubs and press centres from across Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific gathered in Kigali on October 20 and 21 during a pioneering congress, which culminated in the adoption of a charter officially founding the ACP Press Clubs Federation (ACP-PCF).

The ACP-PCF aims to establish a network of national press clubs or press centres, working in collaboration to strengthen the viability and professionalism of media bodies in ACP regions, and to foster intra-ACP communication, cooperation, and networking with similar international bodies around the world.
