Key Projects

Empowering consumer organisations around the world to demand more equitable and accessible broadband service offerings, respecting consumers' rights and broader human rights, as a necessary condition of achieving a socially-inclusive information society.

CI seeks to harness the collective voice and effectiveness of consumer groups working around the world and across issue sectors, to guarantee that consumer interests are adequately represented in national and global debates around intellectual property (IP) and communications rights, and thereby to serve as a catalyst for policy change, by putting pressure on governments and international organisations to develop more balanced IP and communications regimes.

A good communications strategy is key to effective campaigning and vital in defending the rights of consumers. Yet knowing exactly how to get the most out of media opportunities is not an easy task, especially for small consumer groups without massive communications budgets.
