"The second part grew out of the Symposium of Broadcasting Organization and Management held in 1984 at the request of UNESCO, The U.K. Overseas Development Administration, and the British Council, in which a group of directors of broadcasting organizations and permanent secretaries of ministries of information dealt with such masters of policy as shifting cultural boundaries, economic constraints, and technological change. Countries are limited to anglophone Africa; Wedell says that financial constraints prevented a bilingual meeting with colleagues in francophone Africa." (Eleanor Blum, Frances G. Wilhoit: Mass media bibliography. 3rd ed. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1990 Nr. 828)
