The Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA) is pleased to welcome three new board members. The incoming Board members were officially appointed by His Excellency President Cyril Ramaphosa, following , a rigorous selection and interview process by the Portfolio Committee on…
👩💻 Celebrating #GirlsInICT Day! 🌟 This year's theme: "Leadership." We need more female role models in STEM careers. While women fill 40% of high-skill jobs globally, their presence in ICT remains low. Let's change that! Empower girls to pursue tech careers & shape the future!
The Constitution stipulates the establishment of an independent authority to regulate broadcasting in the public interest, and to ensure diverse views representing South Africans. @ICASA_org fulfils this function as the broadcasting, telecommunications & postal services regulator
As our country commemorates #FreedomMonth, let us honour those who fought for our freedom and reflect on the progress made towards a more just, equitable and inclusive South Africa. Let us also be reminded of the importance of a free & independent media in upholding democracy.

"You need to make sure that you're placing the brand in the right space. With African language stations, soapies and dramas are popular, so you could integrate a brand into their storylines," says Sbongi Ngcobo, Business Manager of @ukhozi_fm #PowerofRadio @ArenaEventsZA
"#Radio seamlessly amplifies other advertising channels. A cross-media marketing strategy amplifies brand awareness and recognition. Radio when combined with TV generates more attention and increases the effectiveness of the ad. It also enhances OOH messaging." - @dk_wonderwoman
@jacarandafm @dk_wonderwoman @ArenaEventsZA "In an S.A audio study, it was found that jingles work, specifically if they’re recognisable as they tend to drive more memorability for the brand. Use of gender in the voice of the advert can impact the overall campaign efficacy, and can leave certain groups feeling alienated."
@jacarandafm @dk_wonderwoman @ArenaEventsZA "#Audio strategies need to evolve for younger listeners, as they have changed the way they consume #radio and audio, and tend to have different needs and drivers. The Spotify Gen Z report found that Gen Z audio consumers are blurring the lines between consumption and creation."
The MD of @jacarandafm - Deirdre King (@dk_wonderwoman) delivers her keynote address: "Did you know that despite living in the age of digital dominance, radio reaches more than 90% of the population weekly? It's a giant that continues to capture hearts and minds! #PowerofRadio
