Mission
Statement: “A Free Africa Full Of Love and Happiness”
Our History:
The FreeAfrica website was established by a concerned Zimbabwean
living in Canada who after having been silenced for a long time
by Zimbabwe’s brutal regime – with very limited access
to the free media – decided to become an independent news
media developer.
While this website was initially started as a personal initiative
to have one’s voice heard, it has grown tremendously; and
in the first six months of its operation, it had achieved well over
50 000 hits per month. To date we are featured in various international
and local media links including community and civic society organizations’
websites.
Through our feedback page we have received numerous complimentary
messages from well-wishers, writers and journalists, including human
rights activists who appreciate our policy of non-partisanship and
non-discrimination.
Our Agenda:
At FreeAfrica we promote true freedom of speech and expression,
as well as respect for human rights. Today FreeAfrica enjoys support
and readership from all over the world; including Zimbabwe, South
Africa, Seychelles, Japan, Italy, United States of America, Canada,
United Kingdom, Austria and Australia.
Our fast growing popularity has encouraged several independent journalists,
writers and activists to contribute regularly to the FreeAfrica
website.
Our Dream:
Our FreeAfrica Dream is to forever continue reporting news and other
human rights matters and events as transparently and fairly as we
possibly can, without being subjected to any censorship to freedom
of speech and expression. We are also committed to the promotion
of cultural diversity in a progressive interdependent multi-cultural
global village.
What We Mean:
The African word “thabo” in the name of our website
is translated from the Setswana language of Southern Africa as “happiness”,
which is what freedom of speech and expression (the “FreeAfrica”
referred to in the name of the website) represents for the hopes
and dreams of the African people.
