The World
Affairs Council of Charlotte (WACC) was founded in 1983 as an
outreach program of
UNC Charlotte
and its
Office of International Programs.
As a
non-profit, non-partisan organization, it is supported by private
funding from individual and corporate member dues and contributions.
As a regional center for
education and
discussion of world affairs, the Council seeks to provide leadership
for global thinking, believing that a broad perspective is necessary
for effective competition in the global economy and for responsible
citizenship in an increasingly interdependent political world.
