Development action with informed and engaged societies
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.

2010 Photoshare World Pneumonia Day Photo Contest

0 comments

The 2010 Photoshare World Pneumonia Day Photo Contest invites entries of images capturing pneumonia's impact worldwide, including interventions or awareness campaigns in action and positive stories and photos documenting healthy outcomes for children under the age of five. It is a collaboration between Photoshare, a service of Knowledge for Health (K4Health), and the International Vaccine Access Center at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in partnership with the Global Coalition against Child Pneumonia. Contest prize sponsorship is provided by Nikon.

The contest is intended to highlight photography’s vital role in capturing the realities and impact of pneumonia worldwide. Contest images will support Photoshare and international nonprofits using photography to communicate issues related to global health and development. By submitting images, participants donate their work and contribute to a growing collection of development-oriented photography, helping nonprofits communicate health and development issues worldwide.

The contest features seven awards and five categories, including Best Entry award for each of these regions: Africa, The Americas, Europe and Central Asia, South-East Asia, Western Pacific, as well as overall awards of Best Narrative, and Most Outstanding Entry. A Nikon digital camera will be awarded for each category. Contest images will be evaluated based on topic relevancy and technical execution.
