Mapepeza Hyper-local news media organisation, sharing informative news and engaging stories from Gauteng and Mpumalanga communities since 2013.

Member of the Press Council of SA, BMOA and IAB. A Proudly South African company endorsed by the MDDA Mapepeza Community Newspaper is independently for the people, who empower by inciting their neighbours with informative and positive local news and national headlines. Values & Principles

We produce media that incorporates a “community journalism approach”; where content is informed by the needs

of the community. In other words, media that gives a voice to communities as opposed to that of authorities only. We publish and present media that promotes dialogue and social change about issues.

• Independence: Media that is independent from corporate, government or donor control.
• Social Justice: Media that challenges racism, sexism and xenophobia.
• Access and Participation: Media that provide community access to means of production, including equipment and training opportunities. OUR PRESS CODE: Mapepeza Community Newspaper strives to hold these rights in trust for the country’s citizens; and it is subject to the same rights and duties as the individual. Everyone has the duty to defend and further these rights, in recognition of the struggles that created them: the media, the public and government who all make up a democratic state. Our work is guided at all times by the public interest, understood to describe information of legitimate interest or importance to citizens.
