Launched in Johannesburg in 1993, PEG is a national body with three branches, Gauteng, Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal, each run by a committee of volunteers. PEG represents practitioners who operate in the South African publishing industry, corporate communications and media. PEG is a founding member of LAMP (an umbrella Alliance of Language and Media Professionals), whose mission is to promote the interests of all those professionals who serve this key sector of the South African economy. LAMP also represents our sector on book- and reading-development bodies.
PEG’s members include both freelancers and full-timers who work professionally in any of South Africa’s nine official languages, plus others: writers, copy-editors, subeditors, overwriters, translators, proofreaders, indexers, book designers, and book and magazine DTP specialists. We also welcome those who are not yet practising but have an interest in the field or wish to make a career in it. We encourage our members to contribute towards the achievement of PEG's objectives. By sharing their professional experience and expertise with colleagues, our members contribute to:
* elevating and upholding standards of work in the profession
* improving the public perception of copy-editing and proofreading as a craft
raising awareness of a much-needed service.
PEG’s stated objectives are:
to promote high standards of copy-editing and proofreading
to uphold the professional status of copy-editors and promote professional behaviour among our members
to promote contact among members, the exchange of ideas and the dissemination of information on matters of professional interest
to promote an understanding of the work of copy-editors among potential clients and the general public
to establish and maintain liaison with other societies of copy-editors worldwide.
