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.

SummaryText
MAMTA, the Health Institute For Mother and Child, has constructed a database containing data on Indian young people, particularly on sexual and reproductive health. Information is categorised into broad categories under the following topical headings: population distribution; fertility; mortality; family planning; nutritional status; health care; reproductive health; marital status; education; sexual practise; crime data; and workforce.

Among the data sources are: 1) the Government of India, including the Census of India; the Sample Registration Systems; the Central Statistical Organisation; the National AIDS Control Organisation; and data of the Crime Record Bureau, as well as various reports of several concerned ministries; and 2) other research institutes, such as the International Institute for Population Sciences. Collation is done according to data availability up to the state and district levels.

Free registration is required for access to the database.
