How do we 'communicate peace'? People in positions of responsibility in the media, and the creative artists who write, design, direct and produce, can help by providing balanced reporting, emphasizing social responsibility over profit-making, and by promoting peace-building initatives. And religious organizations can use their structures and networks to challenge communicators to be ethically and socially aware, recognizing that people 'are at once citizens of different nations and of one world in which the local and the global are linked.'

WACC promotes communication for social change. It believes that communication is a basic human right that defines people's common humanity, strengthens cultures, enables participation, creates community and challenges tyranny and oppression.
