The Communication Initiative
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.

Bridging the Gender Digital Divide

0 comments
Published by UNIFEM (United Nations Development Fund for Women) and UNDP (United Nations Development Programme), this report aims to address the gender dimensions of information and communication technologies (ICTs) for development in Central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CEE/CIS). The report highlights the need for increased action to address imbalances between women's and men's access to and participation in ICTs in the CEE/CIS region, and emphasises the powerful potential of ICTs as a vehicle for advancing gender equality.

A Russian translation will be available for download on the UNIFEM CIS and UNDP websites (UNDP Regional Center in Bratislava and RBEC Virtual Gender Library).
