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. 

On the transfer, co-founder Victoria Martin expressed her pleasure to see this work continue under Wits' leadership, knowing that co-founder Warren Feek (1953–2024) would have felt deep pride in The CI Global's Africa-led direction. 

As Wits, we honour the team and partners who sustained The CI for decades and look forward building from that strong base. This includes co-founders Warren Feek (1953-2024) and Victoria Martin as well as La Iniciativa de Comunicación (CILA), which continues independently at lainiciativadecomunicacion.com with links to The CI Global site. We are also eager to forge new partnerships and entertain new ideas as we consider how best to contribute to social and behaviour change in our rapidly evolving environment.

If you are joining the International Social and Behaviour Change Communication (SBCC) Summit in Panama, please join Wits and CILA on Monday, 22 June, to share your thoughts and suggestion for the relaunch of the Communication Initiative. We will be in Pacifica 5 from 12-1:25 for the Refuel, Reflect, and Renew Lunch Series: The Communication Initiative: celebrating a driving force for Communication for Social Change and the way forward. We will reflect on the legacy of Warren Feek and family in creating the Communication Initiative, consider the contributions of CI over the years and then turn our attention towards the future in this dynamic session. 

If you are unable to join us in Panama, we still want to hear from you. Please contribute your thoughts by following this link: https://redcap.link/CommunicationInitiative2026 or reaching out to ci_surveys@commint.com.

Hacia una autorregulación eficaz de los medios. Entre sistemas organizativos y voluntades éticas

1 comment

Este seminario liderado tuvo como tema central la aplicación de sistemas de autorregulación eficientes en los medios peruanos, con el fin de promover procesos de comunicación éticos y que fomenten la democracia, en cumplimiento de las recomendaciones de la Ley de Radio y Televisión, promulgada en Julio de 2004, y respondiendo a las necesidades de una convivencia democrática en el país.

Methodologies
Para evaluar el evento se hizo una revisión del cumplimiento de los objetivos trazados para éste en términos de desarrollo de los tres eventos programados: asistencia de participantes, expositores e invitados; desarrollo de las mesas de trabajo planeadas; relevancia y calidad de los contenidos expuestos, el material distribuido y el aprendizaje logrado; participación y compromiso generado en instituciones, medios de comunicación y personas. También se identificaron los principales aciertos, problemas y dificultades presentadas en la realización y desarrollo del seminario. Finalmente se extrajeron las conclusiones obtenidas del proceso.
