Development action with informed and engaged societies
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.

Invisible Borders: Reportage from Our Mekong

0 comments
SummaryText
This book is a compilation of stories, photos and essays from 16 Inter Press Service (IPS) reporters and photojournalists. All contributors were fellows with the Our Mekong media fellowship programme for reporting on transboundary issues in the Mekong region. These fellows came from China, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam and "spread out across the Greater Mekong Subregion in pursuit of cross-border stories, ranging from dams, commercial navigation, drugs, HIV/AIDS, culture or trade."

The publishers go on to write that "Through their pens and cameras, these journalists take us through a fast-changing corner of Asia - a combination of different political, socio-cultural and media environments, one that is both modern and traditional, urban and rural, linked by the Mekong river but also separated by it, increasingly integrated but also still restricted by borders and past conflicts."
