GENERAL COMMENTS
Infodessa is the magazine of the Dutch Suryoye Student Association (established in the mid-1990s; no exact date available). From the editorial of the Dec 2001 6/15 issue (p.3): “Het is inmiddels als ruim anderhalf jaar geleden dat de laatste Infodessa is verschenen. Om die reden achtte het nieuwe Edessa-bestuur het noodzakelijk om de Infodessa op de lijst van prioriteiten te plaatsen. Een verenigingsblad is een belangrijk medium om met de leden te communiceren. Deze communicatie is nodig om de relatie tussen de leden en de vereniging te vergroten.” In brief: taking up publishing this magazine to increase communication between members and the association; this worked out in a full issue (148 pages) with a variety of articles, with a strong emphasis on identity issues (see toc), including the name issue, migration and re-migration to the homeland, Syriac Orthodox Christians in Israel, relationships to other Arameans in Europe (Brussels), Australia and Turkey, the Hidden Pearl; further religious items, soccer, the Aramaic language, and (online) dating. Unclear whether the magazine succeeded in building up a new series after this one. Main editors: Thomas Aksan, Johnny Messo, Amanuel Cakici
