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.

Drawing Insight: Communicating Development Through Animation

1 comment
SummaryText
World class animators, UNICEF representatives, NGOs and animation industry leaders met in Orlando, Florida, USA in the fall of 1994 for a 2nd Animation for Development Workshop and Summit in order to share their experiences in using animation to reach out to the world's children. This illustrated book presents the success stories of various broadcast and non-broadcast development communication and non-formal education programmes which drew on the power of animation to promote the well being of children. Experiences covered a range from UNICEF's productions in Bangladesh, the Caribbean and Somalia to famous models including the Children's Television Workshop, ASIFA and Nickelodeon.

This is just a copy-paste of Southbound's summary but, anyway, the content can be quite stimulating if you are looking for alternative (non-industrial) uses of animation.
