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.

Health, Data, Decision-making

0 comments

There is lots of discussion about data related to health communication. Lora Shimp has produced a blog on Data for Decision-Making: Empowering Local Data Use. It includes these 2 key questions:

  1. Are we helping the end-line users and those collecting the data at its source to make decisions themselves with their own data?
  2. Are we too focused on the short-term data (this month, this year) and not on analysis of the trends and how our program and activities are faring over time?

Your thoughts, analysis and ideas?
