Market Profile

•Over 70% of respondents in the study reported their primary source of income is own revenue generated from the sale of products and services

•Over a third reported that they had received government grants - an indication of the ongoing importance of government financing of the sector.

•The majority of organisations (66%) reported that their markets are locally based households and individuals

Contribution to GDP•The creative economy contributed R90,5 billion directly to the country’s GDP in 2013/2014.•Relative to the total RSA GDP, the creative industries sector contributes 2.9% of GDP. This is similar to benchmark countries Chile and Australia but far below Brazil, for example.

Employment•The creative economy accounted for a total number of 562,726 jobs in 2013/2014.•The design and creative services and cultural and natural heritage cluster have the largest employment impact, contributing a combined 54% to total employment.

Employment•Relative to employment in the whole of the South African economy, the creative economy contributes 3,6% of total employment.

Supporting Women and Young People•Over 50% of enterprises in the sector are black-owned – of which fewer than 60% are owned by men and over 30% are owned by young people. •There is an almost equal split in employment between women and men and the majority of employees are black South Africans. •Furthermore, the sector provides significant opportunities for young people; the majority of employees are below the age of 35

would appear to be little lasting legacy and impact.• Low levels of financial support from Provinces with regard to

logistical implementation.• Subcontracting of local service providers with no capacity leads

to non delivery on certain key logistics• Late withdrawal on financial and procurement commitments

lead to non compliance on procurement processes

THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES PROGRAMMERivonia Trial Dictabelt Project

•After the Agreement between DAC and the French L’INSTITUT NATIONAL DE L’AUDIOVISUEL (INA) was signed on 20 December 2013, the first batch of Dictabelts was couriered to Paris, France on 12 October 2014 by 2 archives officials . The collection has been inaccessible for the past 50 plus years due to the obsolete technology [dictabelt] that was used to record the proceedings of this landmark case in the history of SA.

•INA has now already digitised a number of these dictabelts and staff at the NVFSA are currently busy transcribing them.

•After completion of this phase of the project the next phase of training South African Archivists to digitise the dictabelts, will start.

Revamping of the NAAIRS and the new NARSSA Website Projects
