Development action with informed and engaged societies
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.

International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED)

The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), launched in 1971, was one of the first organizations to link environment with development. It is an independent international research organization, focusing on five key issues - climate change, governance, human settlements, natural resources, and sustainable markets. In Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Central and South America, the Middle East, and the Pacific, it works with vulnerable populations to ensure they have a say in the policy arenas that most closely affect them - from village councils to international conventions. IIED also advises governments, business, and international development agencies and publishes analytical reports and policy briefs.
