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.

Healthy Newborn Network (HNN)

0 comments
The Healthy Newborn Network (HNN) global online community is designed for any organisation or individual - researcher, policy maker, programme manager, practitioner, or advocate - who works in the field of newborn health. The resource enables those who join (via a free process) to: dialogue with newborn experts through commentary, download resources, find country-specific newborn statistics, browse news and events, post photos or videos, and/or become part of a worldwide newborn health network.

Several of the topics and sections are communication-related. For example, by clicking on "Topics & Insights", one may find resources and news related to advocacy, behaviour change communication (BCC), community mobilisation, job aids, and training/curricula. The "Success Stories" section enables access to videos such as "Tiny Babies. Invisible Deaths".
