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.

My Changing Body: Fertility Awareness for Young People

0 comments
Developed by Family Health International and the Institute for Reproductive Health of Georgetown University, "My Changing Body: Fertility Awareness for Young People" is intended to be a training manual to teach girls and boys ages 10 to 14 years about the changes they experience as they approach puberty.

It also seeks to help youth take good care of their bodies, become more self-confident, and gain positive self-images. Designed for adults who regularly teach human development and fertility to youth in schools, clubs, or community centers, the interactive manual can be used as a stand-alone curriculum or as a supplement to other reproductive health training materials for youth. The manual is available in English.
