Who Pays for Public Interest Broadcasting in the Next Decade?
Direct Government Grants & Universal Levies: Replacing traditional TV licenses with device-agnostic public levies, household technology taxes, or direct fiscal allocations. Commercial & Platform Monetization: Expansion into digital streaming (such as SABC+), content licensing, targeted digital advertising, and gamified or interactive subscription models. Commercial Support & Partnerships: Strategic co-productions, philanthropic grants, and corporate sponsorships to fund specific public-interest reporting and civic coverage.
