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 lainiciativadecomunicacion.com and is linked with The CI Global site.

The Forum for African Investigative Reporters (FAIR) is pleased to announce that investigative journalists working for African media and residing in Africa can apply for a small grant under the 2013 'African Investigative Journalism Grants Fund'. Supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), the objective is to strengthen media environments in Africa to act as a watchdog over actions of governments and vested-interested groups. According to FAIR, the grant programme covers 40 small grants of US$ 1,000 each which are meant for expenses only. An advisory committee will extend these grants to deserving journalists who cannot find time and resources to follow up on an important story.
