Αναμόρφωση των Κυπριακών ΜΜΕ υπό το φως της επικείμενης πολιτικής διευθέτησης του Κυπριακού προβλήματος και της ένταξης της Κύπρου στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση


Η HasNa Inc ιδρύθηκε το 1998 στη Washington DC  σαν μη προσοδοφόρος, μη κυβερνητικός οργανισμός. Δραστηριοποιείται παγκόσμια και στοχεύει  να σπάσει τους κύκλους συγκρούσεων μειώνοντας τις εντάσεις μεταξύ αντίθετων ομάδων που χωρίζονται με βάση τη διαφορετικότητα κουλτούρας, εθνικότητας, πολιτικής ιδεολογίας, θρησκείας και οικονομίας. Xρηματοδοτεί προγράμματα σε διάφορες χώρες.

Η δικοινοτική ομάδα HasNa Κύπρου, δημιουργήθηκε το 2002 σαν αποτέλεσμα χορηγίας η οποία δόθηκε στο CNTI (Cyprus Neuroscience & Technology Institute). H χορηγία προέβλεπε 10 υποτροφίες σύντομης διάρκειας για νέους Kύπριους δημοσιογράφους με στόχο τη μετεκπαίδευση σε θέματα δημοσιογραφικής δεοντολογίας, ειρηνικής επίλυσης συγκρούσεων κα. Στην ομάδα συμμετέχουν πέντε Eλληνοκύπριοι και πέντε Tουρκοκύπριοι νέοι δημοσιογράφοι. Στοχεύει στην  ανάληψη πρωτοβουλιών για την αναβάθμιση-αναδιάρθρωση της δημοσιογραφίας στην Kύπρο, τη μείωση του ρατσισμού/εθνικισμού και την καταπολέμηση της κοινωνικής αδικίας γενικότερα στα πλαίσια της ειρηνικής επιμόρφωσης και αναμόρφωσης. Εξοπλισμένη με την πεποίθηση ότι οι εσωτερικές και περιφερειακές διαμάχες μπορούν να ξεριζωθούν μέσα από την επικοινωνία, διαφάνεια και επιστημονική αντιμετώπιση, έχει πρωτοπορήσει στη δημιουργία του πρώτου το δικοινοτικού περιοδικού το οποίο βρίσκεται στο διαδίκτυο (www.hasnajournal.org). Επιπρόσθετα, διοργανώνει δικοινοτικά εργαστήρια/συναντήσεις στην Πύλα και συμμετέχει σε άλλες ανάλογες εκδηλώσεις. Συνεργάζεται στενά με άλλες δικοινοτικές ομάδες όπως την Youth Promoting Peace (Y2P), το Genclik Merkezi (Youth Center), τις Πλατφόρμες Oμάδων που απαιτούν τη Λύση-Eπανένωση κλπ.
