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.

Young men in urban and ASALs are excluded in developement projects and interventions. It is one segment of a community we cannot afford to exclude especially on SBCC for a variety of community challenges. In Concern Worlwide Kenya Prorgramme, we are engaging young men in urban contects using 'men base circle' and those in ASALs using "moran base circle' approaches for SBCC with a particular focus on protection of girls.

Hi All,

 

I work with Sierra James at Ba Futuru. As well as Domin Nakloke, the Ba Futuru also created the Feto Fantastiku. This film was well received in Timor-Lest. Here are some of the some of  statistic results; 

 

After viewing the Feto Fantastiku ba Dame Film, 71% of surveyed students said domestic violence is illegal and that everyone has the responsibility to report it, compared to 24% before watching it. After the film 93% of students knew of strategies to prevent and manage conflict situations and 65% were able to list strategies (compared to 52% who knew strategies and 14% who could list one before).
