The South African National Editors’ Forum (SANEF) last night awarded the Nat Nakasa Award for courageous journalism to two former New Frame journalists, Cebelihle Mbuyisa and Magnificent Mndebele, at an awards function held in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. New Frame is now defunct.

The awards, sponsored by Sanlam, are now in their sixth iteration since the sponsorship started in 2017.

“The duo’s work at New Frame kept the story of the uprising in eSwatini alive for South African audiences,” said one of the judges, veteran journalist, Chrystal Orderson. She serves on the panel with two other legendary journalists, former The Star Editor-in-Chief, Peter Sullivan, and former Press Ombudsman, Joe Thloloe.

The awards were addressed by retired Judge, Dr Navi Pillay, who serves on the International Commission on Information and Democracy, which affirms the principles of media freedom, safety of journalists and media sustainability.

Pillay said all governments, including South Africa, must take action to promote a free and independent press which is instrumental to combat disinformation, build public trust and advance the promotion and protection of human rights. “I would say that such action must also protect media sources and whistle-blowers,” she said.

She said the world honours courageous journalists and that SANEF’s Nat Nakasa Awards fall into the spirit of celebration of brave and courageous journalists and expresses public gratitude for their work.

“This is what counts. The appreciation of the constituency to whom you are accountable. The silencing of journalists is a loss to society, honouring them is a gain,” Pillay said.

The Nat Nakasa Award for Community Media went to Shiraaz Mohammed for his body of work, which included spending time with health care workers during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Judges noted that Mohammed was working on his own and producing his work without the backup of a big media corporation and putting his own life at risk.

As part of the awards, SANEF’s members get to nominate a fellow member for the Stephen Wrottesley Award, dedicated to honour members whose commitment in the journalism field goes beyond the call of duty. This year it was awarded to media freedom activist, former editor, and former SANEF’s management committee member, Angela Quintal. She is now in charge of the Africa programme at the Committee to Protect Journalists, based in New York.

Pearl Majola spoke on behalf of Sydney Mbhele, Group Executive: Brand saying Sanlam considered these awards to be more than a celebration but an endorsement of media freedom. They were about integrity and the exceptional bravery of journalists who will stand for the truth even at the risk of threats to their very being.

“We believe in and support robust journalism as one of the strongest pillars of our democracy and so we continue to commit our support for these awards,” said Majola

Judge Pillay’s speech and the citations for winners from the adjudication panel are attached.

Nat Nakasa Grave Restored

, ,

The South African National Editors’ Forum (SANEF) – with the help of the Nat Nakasa Awards sponsors, Sanlam – is proud to announce the completion of the restoration of Nat Nakasa’s grave.

In January, it was discovered that the grave, together with those of others – such as slain Bafana Bafana goalkeeper, Senzo Meyiwa – had been vandalised.

SANEF and Sanlam undertook to restore Nakasa’s grave. The tombstone was initially unveiled in August 2014, following efforts by the Department of Arts and Culture and SANEF’s council member Mary Papayya, to bring Nakasa’s remains back home from New York where he died in July 1965.

The restored tombstone will be viewed tomorrow by representatives from SANEF, Sanlam and the eThekwini Municipality. Colleagues in the media are invited to attend.

Place: Heroes’ Acre, Chesterville, Durban

Date: Friday 16 September 2022

Time: 10:00am

Contact person: Dzudzie Netshisaulu (079 029 7656)/ [email protected]

The unveiling of the restored grave forms part of SANEF’s activities in Durban, where the organisation will hold its Council meeting on Saturday 17 September 20200, followed by the Nat Nakasa Awards for Courageous Journalism later that evening.

SANEF Laments the Damage and Lack of Maintenance of Nat Nakasa’s Grave

, ,

The South African National Editors’ Forum (SANEF) is disappointed by news that the eThekwini Municipality has not fulfilled a promise to restore the dedicated tomb of anti- apartheid icon, journalist Nathaniel Nat Nakasa.

His gravesite and that of former Bafana Bafana goalkeeper, Senzo Meyiwa, were vandalised in 2021. Nat, whose legacy is celebrated in SANEF’s annual Nat Nakasa Courageous Journalism award, died in Upstate New York in 1965.

At the time he was on a one-way visa in the US, on a Nieman Scholarship, to escape threats to his life under the apartheid regime. SANEF, together with the Nakasa family and a range of stakeholders, worked tirelessly for years to bring the remains back to his childhood suburb of Chesterville outside Durban.

In 2014 his remains were returned to SA for reburial at the Chesterville cemetery Hero Acres site, a fulfilment of his last wish to return home to the country where he was born. Sanef is saddened by the turn of events and calls on the municipality to restore his gravesite – that is considered a shrine to journalism.

He paid a high price for his sacrifices, and everything must be done to restore his final resting place. SANEF has contacted the municipality division that was responsible for the reburial as well as the eThekwini municipality in the hope that the gravesites can be properly restored and bring comfort to all.

SANEF calls on the eThekwini Municipality to ensure better security at the Hero Acres as such vandalism cannot be allowed with criminals running amok and there is no prosecution.

Nat Nakasa Journalism Awards 2021 Winners

, , 

15 August 2021
Winners of the 23rd Nat Nakasa Journalism Awards, sponsored by SANLAM, were announced at a gala dinner at The Trevor Huddleston Memorial Centre in Sophiatown on August 14. The flagship event of the South African National Editors’ Forum (SANEF) awards journalists who have shown courage and tenacity in the face of enormous challenges and displayed a commitment to serving the people of SA with integrity, resisted censorship, and striven for truth and accuracy in their reporting.

The winner of the Nat Nakasa Award for 2021 is Styli Charalambous, the CEO and co-founder of Daily Maverick. Since its inception the publication has become one of the leading online and a printed publication in SA, in part because of the commitment and passion of the former chartered accountant. Styli says he is now “fully reformed and passionate about the media business”.

This year, the Nat Nakasa Award Community Media was made to Nathan Geffen and Raymond Joseph for their work in the community news agency GroundUp. Since 2018, this small community news agency has persisted with a series of investigations into the NLC that have uncovered corruption, maladministration, and nepotism.  The news agency’s work in general — and its reporting on the lotteries scandal in particular— provides a sterling example of good community journalism in action.  Editor Geffen started GroundUp ten years ago, as a donor-funded community news agency focusing on social justice issues.

The coveted Stephen Wrottesley Award went to Mahlatse Mahlase,chairperson of SANEF 2016 – 2020 and current secretary-general. The award was presented “for her passion, professionalism and commitment to SANEF and her dedication to media freedom and ethics.” Mahlase embodies what SANEF stands for: an unwavering passion for media freedom and a deep commitment to make South Africa a better and more equal place for its citizens, through journalism. Nominated by her peers, Mahlase steered SANEF to financial and organisational stability and has led SANEF in its principled campaign against prevailing hate speech and online abuse against journalists. She championed SANEF’s activism to push back against the abuse of particularly women journalists by politicians and online trolls.

In addition, SANEF recognises five community radio stations this year who have shown determination and bravery in serving their communities: Alex FM; Westside FM 98.9 MHz; Mams Radio; Intokozo FM and Kasie FM 97.1. The prizes were awarded from the SANEF Media Relief Fund. Click here for more info.

The awards are sponsored by SANLAM.

Nat Nakasa Award Winners 2021 Announced: Celebrating 23 Years of Courageous and Brave Journalism

Winners of the 23rd Nat Nakasa Journalism Awards, sponsored by SANLAM, were announced at a gala dinner at The Trevor Huddleston Memorial Centre in Sophiatown on August 14.

The panel of judges for the awards represents different generations, value and respect each other’s opinions and have robust discussions around nominees:

Peter Sullivan, convenor of the panel since 2006, offered the following: “There are many instances of courage in journalism, both under apartheid and the current democracy. Journalists yearn to laud their own, to show we do a tough job, sometimes under severe threat, often unappreciated and even scorned. This award shows our audience and the country and our fellows that their courage does not go unseen.”

Commenting on the value of the awards, Crystal Orderson, who has been on the panel since 2018 and is known for The Africa Report on 702 Talk Radio, said: “It is important that we recognise differences in our media environment but also pay homage to Nat Nakasa and reflect on the role of the media in SA and making a difference in the media landscape, ensuring access to ordinary South Africans. Covid-19 has made immense challenges to the media, so we looked for those stand-out publications that really had major obstacles to overcome.”

Veteran journalist Joe Thloloe, a previous award winner, colleague of Nakasa’s and panellist since the inception of the award in 1998, recalled the moment he won: “When the MC at the SANEF dinner in Durban called my name, it was particularly moving for me, because nobody had even whispered the information to me ahead of the time; the weight of Nat’s one-way ticket out of South Africa to take up a Nieman Fellowship at Harvard University in 1964 and his tragic death in exile hit me afresh; and, the award was modelled on the Louis Lyons Award at the Nieman Foundation…I shed tears when the announcement was made. At the time, the apartheid government had banned me, I couldn’t work for any publication and had been in jail a few times for my beliefs and was to continue that journey for another 12 years.”

Thloloe went on to elaborate: “We don’t look for just a competent journalist; we don’t look for technical excellence – we look for a media worker, a journalist, a publisher or media owner who has been courageous and fought against all that stood in his path to publish, keeping the flag of Section 16 of the country’s Constitution flying high.”

SANEF Disappointed by the Zimbabwe High Court’s Role in the Failure to Grant Journalist Hopewell Chin’ono Permission to Travel

, , ,

The South African National Editors’ Forum (SANEF) is disappointed by the failure of the Zimbabwean High Court to hand over the passport of renowned journalist Hopewell Chin’ono. Chin’ono was due to travel to Johannesburg where he was to deliver a keynote address at the Nat Nakasa Awards Gala dinner on Saturday 14 August 2021. Chin’ono was supposed to have travelled out of Harare today to attend the SANEF-organised awards.

The court was made aware that he was meant to depart from Harare on Friday, 13 August, on an 08:15am flight. His traveling itinerary was provided to the court. The same court had allowed Chin’ono to travel to Johannesburg on a separate matter last December and had released Chin’ono’s passport. But this time around he was told that his passport is being held as part of his bail conditions.

Chin’ono applied to the Court last week Friday, 6 August 2021, for his passport to be released. The court acknowledged the urgency of the matter when the application was made, but disappointingly, it is yet to make a ruling.

Any ruling now will be an academic exercise as Chin’ono will not be able to retrieve the passport, get a Covid-19 test done and then travel in time for the event. Chin’ono is not a flight risk as he has demonstrated before that he adheres to the conditions set by the court and has returned to Zimbabwe previously.

It is regrettable that Chin’ono continues to be a victim of the Zimbabwean government’s political persecution. Journalism is not a crime, and journalists should not be treated like common criminals for practicing their craft.

Chin’ono has spent eighty-five days in various Zimbabwean jails between 20 July 2020, and 27 January 2021 – all on the basis of trumped-up charges.

SANEF calls on the government of Zimbabwe to respect the constitutional rights of not only journalists, but all its citizens. We believe that there is no society that can thrive without a strong and an independent press, and no democratic society persecutes journalists.

We continue to call on the regional body, the Southern African Development Community (SADC) to exert pressure on Zimbabwe to allow journalists to do their work without any fear of intimidation and persecution.

SANEF invited Chin’ono to highlight the difficult working conditions for journalists in the region and the continent. Nat Nakasa paid the ultimate price, dying in exile in 1965, after he was forced to desert his home country by the apartheid regime.

Fifty-six years later, there are still journalists on our continent who are being jailed, harassed, and even killed for reporting on the atrocities, the human rights abuses, and corruption in their countries.

We reiterate the call by regional body, the Southern African Editors Forum for SADC governments to abolish all draconian laws and align themselves with international standards. This will enable journalists to operate in a free environment without fear of their lives when doing their jobs.

SANEF will Go ahead with the awards ceremony, with Chin’ono delivering his speech virtually. To view the awards celebrating courageous journalism, please go here 23rd Nat Nakasa Awards – YouTube or on the SANEF Facebook page.

Invitation to Tender: SANEF Events 2021

, , ,

 

Event Management Tender for two separate events:

  • Virtual/ physical SANEF Nat Nakasa Award: August 2021
  • Virtual/ physical 25 Year Anniversary Fundraising Gala Dinner: October 2021

Introduction

The South African National Editors’ Forum (SANEF) is the most influential media freedom advocacy grouping in South Africa. It consists of editors and senior journalists operating in print, broadcasting and digital mainstream at national, regional and community media levels. It also serves media trainers and academics from major journalism departments and training institutes in the country.

SANEF’s vision is to promote the quality and ethics of journalism, to reflect the diversity of South Africa, and to champion freedom of expression.

Event management services

SANEF would like to invite event management companies and individuals to bid to manage one or both of the following events:

Event #1: Nat Nakasa Award: August 2021

Nat Nakasa was a prominent South African journalist and writer who died in exile in 1965. The annual Nat Nakasa Award is awarded for courageous and brave journalism. The Award recognises any media practitioner – journalist, editor, manager or owner who has:

  • Shown integrity and reported fearlessly.
  • Displayed a commitment to serve the people of South Africa.
  • Tenaciously striven to maintain a publication or other medium despite significant obstacles.
  • Resisted any censorship.
  • Shown courage in making information available to the SA public.

The winner is selected by a jury based on nominations submitted by the public.

The Nat Nakasa Award was previously a gala dinner event. Due to the COVID-19 crisis last year it was held virtually and the launch of the winner – which was the media industry as a whole – was announced with the flighting of a documentary on SA media’s coronavirus coverage.  This year the event which will require innovation and creativity to ensure widespread and active participation is scheduled for August 2021. The award is kindly sponsored by Sanlam. The selection of journalists for the awards will be adjudicated by a panel of media stalwarts.

We would like bid companies to give us two options – a physical gala dinner event for 100 people and also the option of an exciting and innovative online event (with entertainment options). We will decide closer to the time as to which option is preferable. 

Event #2: 25 Year Anniversary Fundraising Gala Dinner: October 2021

In 2016 SANEF decided to hold an annual fundraising gala dinner to commemorate Black Wednesday and for the purpose of mobilising financial resources for SANEF’s media legal defence fund. SANEF commemorates Black Wednesday to emphasise the importance of media freedom and reflect on the fateful day of 19 October 1977 when the apartheid state banned several newspapers accused of being aligned with the black consciousness movement and ideology.

This year’s 25 Year Anniversary Fundraising Gala Dinner is scheduled for October 2021 in Johannesburg. A prominent South African or international speaker will be invited to address the event. Different categories of sponsors need to be secured. The event company will be paid a commission of 10% on all funding raised.

We would like bid companies to give us two options – a physical gala dinner event for 200 people and also the option of an exciting and innovative online event (with entertainment options). We will decide closer to the time as to which option is preferable.

Submitting a tender for one or both events

Prospective companies and individuals (bidders) may tender for one or both events. If bidders choose to tender for both events then two separate tenders must be submitted.

The tender document(s) must contain the following:

  • Name of bidder and contact details including company registration and names and ID numbers of representatives.
  • Three references (name, phone and email, context in which you have worked together).
  • Outline how the bidder would approach the Nat Nakasa Award and/or Fundraising Gala Dinner in terms of:
    • Event concept.
    • Theme, including entertainment and decorations.
    • Proposed venues and menus (as appropriate).
    • Detailed budget.

Any tender submitted for the Fundraising Gala Dinner must also include concrete proposals for using this event as a means of fundraising for SANEF.

  • Shortlisted bidders will be asked to present to the SANEF Management team.
  • Date for submission: end of business on 30 April 2021.
  • Submit your tender(s) to [email protected].
