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.

1 comment
SummaryText

This website, developed by the Center for Communication Programs, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, in collaboration with over 30 organisations and funded by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation and the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, aims to provide a comprehensive knowledge base for health professionals working to integrate the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS with sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. Users can access recent research and evidence-based approaches to integrating prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS with SRH services, as well as materials documenting field programme experiences, tools for integrated service delivery, news, and conference materials.

 

Examples of inclusions are:

  • Issues of the HIV/AIDS and Sexual and Reproductive Health Integration: Quarterly Highlights Newsletter.
  • Interviews with 11 programme managers and health care professionals working to integrate HIV/AIDS and sexual and reproductive health/family planning services in countries such as Zimbabwe, Uganda, Botswana, Rwanda, and Bangladesh, among others.
  • Abstracts and ordering information for journal articles.
  • A featured tool for HIV/AIDS and sexual and reproductive health treatment and diagnosis.

This is apt and timely resource for programmers in the HI/AIDS sub-domain. This is in the purview of the wording of the new PEPFAR reauthorisation which specifically harped on 'de-verticalisation' of HIV/AIDS programmes towards more integration with reproductive and sexual health.
