A new magazine has just hit the blogosphere, bringing you stories straight from the Middle East, EU and North Africa. In EMAJ Magazine you can find features on the life conditions of homosexual people in Egypt, the exploding Halal food market in Europe or the conditions of journalists in south Lebanon.
The EMAJ Magazine is brought to you by a network of fellow young journalists from the Middle East, EU and North Africa who met during the Euro-Mediterranean Academy for Young Journalists held in Amman, Jordan in 2008 and Amsterdam, the Netherlands in 2009.
Due to their different backgrounds, they can’t and don’t want to be politically correct. In the spirit of free speech, they decided that they did not want to silence the voices of the members just because they were colliding with the value systems of a region or country. Instead they decided to use this platform as a starting point for sometimes sensitive but important discussions in the context of interregional journalism and dialogue.
The EMAJ Magazine focuses on issues related to the European Union, Middle East and North Africa with a special regard to the relationship between the regions as well as human rights, intercultural dialogue and immigration.
So check it out their site , follow and participate in the discussions of each article. If you like what you see, feel free to subscribe to their blog.
If you have any question/thoughts on the magazine or want to contribute, you are more than welcome to write to emajmagazine@gmail.com
