Development action with informed and engaged societies
As of March 15 2025, The Communication Initiative (The CI) platform is operating at a reduced level, with no new content being posted to the global website and registration/login functions disabled. (La Iniciativa de Comunicación, or CILA, will keep running.) While many interactive functions are no longer available, The CI platform remains open for public use, with all content accessible and searchable until the end of 2025. 

Please note that some links within our knowledge summaries may be broken due to changes in external websites. The denial of access to the USAID website has, for instance, left many links broken. We can only hope that these valuable resources will be made available again soon. In the meantime, our summaries may help you by gleaning key insights from those resources. 

A heartfelt thank you to our network for your support and the invaluable work you do.

SummaryText
The Global Movement for Children (GMC) in Jordan functions as a collective voice for people and organisations to come together to create an environment that ensures the rights of every child. The Say Yes for Children campaign is the first global activity of the GMC. It has shown that great results can be achieved if forces are united.

The campaign's main purpose is to communicate the message that people of the world care about children and expect governments to keep the promises they make to them. People contributed by saying 'Yes' to 10 critical actions for improving children's lives. They include:
  1. Leave no child out
  2. Put children first
  3. Care for every child
  4. Fight HIV/AIDS
  5. Stop harming and exploiting children
  6. Listen to children
  7. Educate every child
  8. Protect children from war
  9. Protect the earth for children
  10. Fight poverty: invest in children
The book delves into the campaign's launch and its plan of action. It also details the political will raised and the signature received.
