International Anti-Apartheid Year
The word apartheid, from Afrikaans, literally means “separateness.” As early as 1976, UNESCO’s General Conference proclaimed its practice as a hindrance to the development of education, science, culture and communication. At a world conference on actions against apartheid, held the following year in Lagos (Nigeria), UNESCO recommended the observance of International Anti-Apartheid Year. The observance of the year was marked by a series of symposia and the publication of books and research papers. Public awareness material like this poster by Salsi was disseminated.
