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.

Emerging Infectious Diseases

0 comments
The Emerging Infectious Diseases (EID) journal is published monthly by the National Center for Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The journal is designed to "promote the recognition of new and re-emerging infectious diseases around the world and improve the understanding of factors involved in disease emergence, prevention, and elimination". Issues addressed in this journal include:
  • New infections resulting from changes or evolution of existing organisms
  • Known infections spreading to new geographic areas or populations
  • Previously unrecognised infections appearing in areas undergoing ecologic transformation
  • Old infections re-emerging as a result of antimicrobial resistance in known agents or breakdowns in public health measures.
 While Emerging Infectious Diseases is the scientific communications component of the CDC, the journal is a peer reviewed publication accepting articles from authors around the world covering issues of global concern. The journal includes research, policy analysis, historical views, commentaries, synopses and letters.
