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.

The Animated Activist: A Presentation by Firdaus Kharas

0 comments

In this presentation by social innovator and director Firdaus Kharas at Unite for Sight's 2013 Global Health & Innovation Conference, Kharas discusses production of animation, documentaries, films, and television series designed to educate, entertain, and change societal and individual behaviour via a process he calls Culture Shift. His goal is to positively influence viewers' knowledge, attitude, and behaviour, especially that of children and young adults, in order to better the human condition. In this presentation, he explains how animation is uniquely helpful in achieving those goals.
