The magazine Dinjan, which is published in three languages – Bosnian, French and German – celebrates its first anniversary. Dinjan is one of the successful projects launched by the Bosnian diaspora in the media scene, and with regard to its concept it is the only magazine that represents Bosniaks in Europe, says Almir Mehonic, the editor-in-chief of the magazine. The mission of the magazine is to present the position of Bosniaks to the European public and its official institutions. In a very short period of time, the magazine has managed to achieve high quality and bring together a competent team of contributors consisting of renowned Bosniak authors like the member of the Academy of Science and Arts Muhamed Filipovic, Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Kajan, members of the Academy of Science and Arts Ferid Muhic and Dzemaludin Latic, Fatmir Alispahic, M.A., Anes Dzunuzovic, as well as well-known European authors who have been publishing their articles in the three-language magazine. The project of the Bosniak (mostly Sandzak) diaspora has received support from the Government of Luxembourg and EU funds. Unfortunately, support from the national and other institutions from the homeland is almost non-existent, while the former Ministry of Diaspora of Serbia had actually been the ministry of Serbian diaspora. On the other hand, Bosniak institutions and organizations from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Sandzak have viewed the diaspora as a hen that lays golden eggs. Dinjan is facing a period during which its editorial team will strive to transform the magazine into an all-Bosniak media in the diaspora that would serve as a center of information on Bosniak-European immigration, says Mehoric.
