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.

In order to empower the more than 60 local NGOs active within the EC/UNFPA Initiative for Reproductive Health in Asia (RHI) to independently carry out media and press work, the Information and Communication Network (ComNet) of the RHI has carried out several workshops in this area. To complement the workshop series, which will continue in Nepal and Pakistan in November, the ComNet has published the new ComNet Guide 'Advanced Dealing with Media: A Practical Guide'. The Advanced Guide provides information on how to prepare news releases and feature stories, interviews and presentations, as well as on how to carry out press conferences and press tours.

This is meant as a continuation of the 'Dealing with Media: A Practical Guide'. Together, both guides provide a step by step introduction into how to enhance the visibility of local non-governmental organisations (NGOs) work within the media.
