| Σύνοψη: | Following the call by the Uppsala assembly of the World Council of Churches (WCC) in 1968 for an ecumenical campaign against racism, the WCC set up the Programme to Combat Racism (PCR) the following year with its Special Fund to provide grants to those oppressed by racism and the organizations that represented them.

This article is a personal reflection on the experiences and achievements of the PCR, concluding with a reflection on the continuing challenge of racism today. |
