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.

good to know the cycle, it has relevance to my work as a development worker based in bangladesh, essentially gathered knowledge through learning by doing. i have been practising a process in my work: 'do, document, disseminate and dialogue', what i often love call the four-dimensional development communication.

however shift to computer and internet dependent communication channels still supports the hierarchical position over the powrful over the general mass, benefitting rather the brokers in diverse forms playing in between, given the poor governance and accountability.

I found this page very interesting, and gave me some insights into concepts/percetions in Communication for Development. I hope I will be able to actively engage in future Communication for Development initiatives and training.
