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.

Published in 2002, this 224-page book is a primer on media governance at a global level. It explores the key influencing forces and organisations in this area, such as ITU, WTO, UNESCO, WIPO, and ICANN. Questions addressed include: Why do we regulate media at all? What are the major forms of global regulation, and how do they work? Who participates in, and who benefits from, media regulatory and governance structures? What are the trends? These questions might interest those who follow the development of media and its influence. Selected references for further reading are included.
