Soul Beat Africa
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.

FOCUS: The new normal.

Countries/Markets/Business are gradually opening up and others have fully opened up and the conversation at this live chat will anchor around the behavior change complexities that come with this new normal and how we sustain the fight against COVID 19. We will look at young people and risk perception, trade offs on livelihoods vs a healthy population, issues of stigma, government directives and voluntary behaviour change and opportunities for public private partnerships.
