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.

Women Building Peace: What They Do, Why It Matters

Author

  • Sanam Naraghi Anderlini
In this book, Sanam Naraghi Anderlini explores the transformative nature of women's peace activism - with a focus on women's active participation in efforts taking place around the world. With an eye to bridging the divide between women's peacebuilding and that of the international peace and security community, Anderlini seeks to show how and why women's presence, activities, opinions, approaches, and resilience matter.

Anderlini also traces the evolution of international policies in this arena and highlights the problems that stunt progress. Drawing on research and field experience, she examines how gender sensitivity in programming can foster sustainable peace, providing concrete examples of how to draw on women's untapped potential in this regard.
