SAJA Sessions: Sri Lanka: Conflict and Coverage

While the human cost of the conflict in Sri Lanka continues, reporting on this theatre of war poses its own challenges, even in Canada. It's not easy for journalists outside the community to break the wall of silence or understand the various agendas at play.

To this end, SAJA (www.saja.org) -- in partnership with PEN Canada (www.pencanada.ca) and Ryerson University's School of Journalism -- will bring together a range of voices familiar with Sri Lanka and its Diaspora.
