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.

Groupe Médialternatif - Haiti

0 comments
The Médialternatif Group is an association made up of mass communication professionals and members from related disciplines, all of whom are troubled by the problem of inadequate access to information. Its objective is to promote the creation and exchange of alternative information and communication spaces in a way that expresses respect for human rights and free expression. To this end, the organisation uses books, newspapers, audio and video cassettes, CD-ROM, and mass media and communication resources (phone, fax, etc.) in an effort to provide integral, documented, diverse, and decentralised information.

Groupe Médialternatif produces, disseminates, and publishes information, as well as meadia, educational, cultural, and public interest materials; it promotes, creates, and takes part in the creation of media spaces and means of communication while promoting reflection on the challenges that are inherent in communications.
Communication Strategies
The Group conducts public and social communication activities and provides services in these media: radio, TV, and written and electronic press consulting. The organisation conceives of, writes, and produces radio and TV and other audiovisual resources, in addition to graphics. These informative materials are meant to raise awareness and educate their readers, in part through a foucs on genres. It also conceptualises and conducts social-educational campaigns in addition to technical training in communication.
