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.

Amy Mahan Research Fellowship Program to Assess the Impact of Public Access to ICT

1 comment

The Amy Mahan Research Fellowship Program will award as many as 12 research fellowships each providing a grant of up to €22,000 Euros (US$32,000) and specialised guidance to enable emerging scholars in Africa and the Middle East, the Asia Pacific region, and Latin America and the Caribbean to carry out their own new and original research study examining the impact of public access to information and communication technology (ICT). Emerging researchers from developing countries are invited to apply for a fellowship. They may submit their application and conduct their research in English, French, Portuguese, or Spanish.

The programme is an 18-month project sponsored by Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and managed by Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain, in collaboration with scholars from Universidad de San Andrés, Argentina, the University of the Philippines, Manila, and the Learning Information Networking Knowledge (LINK) Centre, South Africa.

The side is very much useful. Most of the time I received Soul Beat news,I used to ingnore it but now as I have come across all this information I will make time to read it no matter what. The subject line is the one I want o comment on. Looking at the date,December 2009 was the deadline. Do you have another deadline for another round because I want to apply for funding to do a Diploma Course on International Envirornmental Law offered by the United Nations Institute for Training and Research(UNITAR) that will go up to a Fellowship level. I was accepted in 2007 but couldn't do the course because I didn't managed to get the funds and I was asked to re-apply. The course will cost me U$800. You can contact elp@unitar.org for my application.
