SIGNIS is a non-governmental, global, Catholic media association which covers all fields of communication: cinema, radio, television, video, media education and new technologies. It emerged in 2001 when the film and cinema organisation OCIC (Office Catholique International de Cinéma) and the radio and television organisation UNDA, both founded in 1928, were unified. The SIGNIS mission is to promote a culture of peace through the media. Its members are Catholic media associations, either national or international.
