Child rights 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.

Consultation: Global Mechanism for Communication, Media, Social and Behaviour Change

0 comments

Hi and welcome to the online Group for the Consultation: Global Mechanism for Communication, Media, Social and Behaviour Change. This is a space for everyone interested to share thoughts, analysis and ideas on both the rationale for this possible development (see above or click this link) and the questions below so that they are part of the overall process. If you are attending one of the informal gatherings please do contribute here in advance. That will greatly help the productivity of those events. To contribute either click "Please review" below or just reply by email to this message. Thanks. The core questions are (but please comment as you wish of course!):

In your assessment would such a mechanism bring added value to communication and media (for) development, social and behavioural change? If you answer "yes", then

What overall goals and themes would you propose as the focus of such a mechanism

What strategic approach should such a mechanism take to work towards those goal?

If your answer to Q1 is “no”, what is the basis for that judgement?

Thanks - Warren
