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.

Mama Cash supports projects from women's groups and women's organisations all over the world. The fund seeks:

  • projects that are focused on groups of women who are relegated to a marginal position within a certain context, for example: girls, women of colour, migrant and refugee women, HIV/AIDS-infected women, indigenous women, sex workers, lesbians, and women with a disability;
  • projects with bold, innovative strategies, responsive to changing circumstances, ready to take advantage of strategic opportunities, and prepared to share the risks inherent in the work of resisting and transforming oppressive structures and systems; and
  • innovative feminist and women's rights organisations, networks, and funds led by and for women and girls.


Applications from The Netherlands and Europe, as well as the Global South (Asia and the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean) and the former Soviet Union, can be submitted throughout the entire year. Applications must be completed in Dutch, English, French, or Spanish. Mama Cash will only assess applications that meet her criteria and are properly completed.

Mama Cash mainly funds organisations and networks with annual operating budgets under 200,000 euros.
