African development action with informed and engaged societies
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.

0 comments
From the Summary
"This study documents the role of civil society in the development of ICTs in Kenya and also captures the applications and exploitation of ICTs by the civil society to achieve its development mission and the challenge it faces.

Inputs from extensive desk and Internet research as well as personal interviews in the month of June/July 2002 and firsthand knowledge of the author over the period 1992-2002 provides a basis for analysis of the paper.

Results indicate that civil society have played a significant role in the development ofICTs by creating awareness and training by introduction of services in early 1990's. Apart from the supply of email services, civil society lobbied for improved policy andregulatory framework."
