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 cila.comminitcila.com and is linked with The CI Global site.

A collaboration with the Baccalaureate School for Global Education (BSGE).  In collaboration with this unique school, students learn documentary and fictional video production in an after-school media program that builds on a Human Rights and Youth Empowerment elective.

 

This video is an exploration of youth rights internationally, and takes a look at the juvenile justice system through the lens of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.  Produced by students in the Human Rights and Youth Empowerment class, this video combines research, interviews, and dramatic re-enactments to illustrate their findings.
