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.

100 Ways to Energise Groups: Games to Use in Workshops, Meetings and the Community

3 comments
Facilitators use games for a variety of reasons, including helping people to get to know each other, increasing energy or enthusiasm levels, encouraging team building, or getting people to think about a specific issue. These "icebreakers" can also be used to help people address problems they may encounter when working together. Games can foster creative and lateral thinking.

100 Ways to Energise Groups: Games to Use in Workshops, Meetings and the Community is one of a series of resources that The International HIV/AIDS Alliance has developed to encourage participation in practice. It is a compilation of energisers, icebreakers, and games that can be used by anyone working with groups of people, whether in a workshop, meeting, or community setting. This guide aims to be an 'ideas book' of shared experiences to help facilitators prepare for participatory workshops.
