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.

HIV/AIDS and Women: A Collection of Resources to Support Policy and Advocacy on HIV/AIDS 2008

0 comments
Women, Ink., a programme of the International Women's Tribune Centre (IWTC), compiled a collection of materials entitled "HIV/AIDS and Women: Resources to Support Policy and Advocacy." Comprising some 50 action-oriented tools as well as analyses, reports, and case studies, this resource pack was assembled to support informed participation on issues of women and HIV/AIDS at the UN General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS 2008.

 

The directory of resources specifically addresses the needs of women. Included in this pack is a list of free resources culled from organisations working on gender and HIVAIDS, as well as selected relevant books available for purchase. It includes materials around the following topics:

  • Advocating for a gender-based approach to HIV/AIDS;
  • Protecting the rights of young women and girls;
  • Promoting a gender-based approach to prevention and care;
  • Guaranteeing sexual and reproductive health and rights for women;
  • Supporting leadership among women living with HIV/AIDS;
  • Eliminating violence against women; and
  • Ensuring women's economic rights.
Editor's note, October 18 2010: Women, Ink. is no longer in operation. Please contact IWTC at the address listed below to inquire about accessing this resource.
