Corrections

At Africa Trade Monitor, accuracy is fundamental to our mission of delivering reliable trade journalism to South Africa and the broader African continent. We are committed to correcting errors promptly and transparently when they occur. How to Report an Error Readers who identify factual inaccuracies, misquotes, or other errors in our reporting are encouraged to contact our corrections desk immediately. Please email [email protected] with the following information: the article title and URL, the specific error identified, the correct information with supporting sources, and your contact details for verification purposes. Our Review Process Upon receipt of a correction request, our editorial team conducts a thorough review within 48 business hours. We verify the reported error against our source materials and conduct additional research if necessary. We contact the original reporter and relevant sources to confirm the inaccuracy. Once verified, corrections are implemented immediately. Correction Implementation All corrections are clearly marked in the original article with a prominent note indicating what was changed and when. For significant errors that substantially affect the article's meaning or impact, we publish a separate correction notice in our Corrections section. We maintain a searchable archive of all corrections for transparency and accountability. Clarifications vs. Corrections We distinguish between corrections (factual errors) and clarifications (additional context or explanation that doesn't indicate an error in the original reporting). Both are handled with equal seriousness and published transparently.
