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.

1. Red SIREVA – Américas – el Sistema de Redes de Vigilancia de los Agentes Bacterianos Responsables de Neumonía y Meningitis – SIREVA, es un programa regional de vigilancia creado en 1993 y coordinado por la Organización Panamericana de la Salud. Está basado en una red de hospitales y laboratorios centinelas que proveen datos e información epidemiológica acerca de las enfermedades causadas por neumococo en la región de las Américas, y permiten la formulación de vacunas cada vez más eficientes. La red originalmente recibió el nombre de SIREVA –Sistema Regional de Vacunas- y a partir de 2004 se denomina Red SIREVA II.
