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.

Radio Manuela Ramos - Peru

0 comments
"Radio Manuela Ramos" was started by a group of women, and aims to make women more conscious of what they should not tolerate in areas such as sex, contraception, family planning, violence and human rights.
Communication Strategies

"Radio Manuela Ramos" encourages listeners to call in and join the programme, monitors general public opinion, and creates debate and positive radio programmes.

Development Issues

Economic development, women, gender, rights, family planning, political development.

Key Points

"Radio Manuela Ramos" concentrates on three issues: the right of a woman to decide if she wants children, human rights and rights around education and divorce, and obligations in connection with the establishment of a small business. It is currently addressing financial support for medical services for women who have had illegal abortions, and strengthening consciousness around domestic violence.
