After nearly 28 years, The Communication Initiative (The CI) Global is entering a new chapter. Following a period of transition, the global website has been transferred to the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) in South Africa, where it will be administered by the Social and Behaviour Change Communication Division. Wits' commitment to social change and justice makes it a trusted steward for The CI's legacy and future.
 
Co-founder Victoria Martin is pleased to see this work continue under Wits' leadership. Victoria knows that co-founder Warren Feek (1953–2024) would have felt deep pride in The CI Global's Africa-led direction.
 
We honour the team and partners who sustained The CI for decades. Meanwhile, La Iniciativa de Comunicación (CILA) continues independently at cila.comminitcila.com and is linked with The CI Global site.

The Role of SBC in HIV/AIDS Treatment, Adherence, and Care

Over the course of the session, the panel will provide a platform for open discussion on the continued role of SBC as a key tool to achieving 90-90-90. The panel will demonstrate how development practitioners can look to SBC for a catalog of past successes, ways to address challenges and pitfalls, as well as for innovations for the future, that support and enhance the enabling environment for progressively effective HIV interventions.
