The National Community Radio Forum (NCRF) and Alternative Information and Development Centre (AIDC) have collaborated to published a web portal Amandla! Alternative Media. The founders describe it as a resource for community and alternative media activists. The site is designed to support, promote, and document the work of alternative and community media in South Africa and beyond - from case studies and good practice, to policy issues, tools, reviews, links, and other resources.

According to the website, South Africa has over 100 on-air community radio stations, two on-air community television stations, and numerous print and online community and alternative media initiatives. These media projects have grown out of the struggle to liberate people and from an acknowledgement that accessing information and the capacity to express ideas are critical to the creation of a more just and participatory democracy – as well as a realisation that media owned and controlled by the private sector and state could not serve this purpose.
