BIRN-Justice Report hosts American students
31 July 2008
BIRN - Justice Report has hosted a group of students from California in July, for the second year running.
As a part of their study visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina, a group of students from the San Domenico school in California, the United States, paid a visit to the BIRN - Justice Report office in Sarajevo. They met editor Nidzara Ahmetasevic and journalists, Aida Alica and Merima Husejnovic.
During this visit, Justice Report journalists discussed how war crimes investigations are ongoing in the country, the role of media and the challenges facing Bosnian society after the war, during the session with the students.
Professor Ian Sether, head of the Department for History at San Domenico school, informed us that students are regular readers of BIRN reports, and use them for their studies as well as for articles on human rights issues they are publish in their student newspaper Aeqvitas.
Justice Report is a
specialist reporting agency focusing on war crimes trials taking place before
local courts; development of the local legal system; and efforts to come to
terms with the past.
