African development action with informed and engaged societies
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.

Onelove Advocacy Leaflet

0 comments
SummaryText
Published for the Onelove Kwasila! campaign in Zambia, this advocacy leaflet is designed for National Assembly staff, parliamentarians, and programme managers to support advocacy efforts related to multiple concurrent partnerships (MCP) and HIV prevention. Using diagrams to illustrate the risks associated with MCP, the leaflet explains in detail the concept of MCP and why it is so crucial to address this issue. The diagrams are based on the "Men's Health Kit", a counselling tool for health providers produced by the Health Communication Partnership Zambia. The first series shows the potential path of the HIV virus in a scenario of 8 months involving MCP. The second 8-month set of diagrams shows the path of the HIV virus in a serial monogamy (having one long-term sexual partner at a time) scenario. The third 8-month scenario shows the potential path of HIV infection among a group in which the individuals generally use condoms with girlfriends/boyfriends but not with spouses.
