Since its election, the committee has organised a media briefing function featuring Human Rights Watch and has issued invitations to 12 networking cultural event outings, an awards function at the Institute for the Advancement of Journalism and a reception hosted by the Italian Ambassador to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Italian unification.

Planned events include a debate between the three dominant political parties in the upcoming local elections (11 May), a debate on Fracking in the Karoo (25 May), the MTN Golden Lions speaking on its performance (June), and a briefing by SANRAL on the toll roads (June).
