How Hazara Express News is not only training young people, but actively integrating them into the future of journalism

Hazara Express News goes beyond conventional training by creating real pathways for young journalists to enter the professional media landscape. Through structured paid internships, institutional partnerships with universities and colleges, and hands-on field exposure, students are treated as emerging professionals rather than temporary trainees.

Young participants are involved in the complete journalistic process—from research and data-driven story development to field reporting, video production, and editorial decision-making. They work on real stories that address local social, political, and cultural issues, ensuring their work reaches real audiences and has tangible impact.

By emphasizing ethical reporting, community-centered journalism, and digital storytelling skills, Hazara Express News equips youth with competencies required by the evolving media market. Most importantly, the initiative creates inclusive opportunities for women and underrepresented groups, enabling them to build sustainable careers in journalism without leaving their region.

In doing so, Hazara Express News is not just training journalists—it is shaping a new, locally rooted, and future-ready generation of media professionals.

Joint Solidarity Statement

World Humanitarian Day – 19 August 2025

On this World Humanitarian Day, the Hazara Development Alliance—Friends Association, Haashar, NiDA Pakistan, SEEK, GEESE, WAJ, and Saibaan Development Organization—stands united in honoring the spirit of humanity and the dedication of aid workers across the globe.

This year’s observance comes at a time when devastating floods have struck Pakistan, claiming hundreds of lives and leaving communities in despair. In the midst of this tragedy, humanitarian workers—national and international—have once again shown extraordinary courage by rushing to rescue lives, deliver relief, and restore dignity to those most affected.

We salute their sacrifice, resilience, and compassion, and we remember those who gave their lives in service to humanity. Their commitment inspires us to strengthen solidarity, empower local communities, and work together for a safer and more just world.

Today, we reaffirm our pledge: to protect those who protect humanity, to stand with the vulnerable, and to act together for hope and resilience.
