History

BH Dani, also known as Dani is a weekly politics magazine published in Sarajevo. The first issue of the magazine was distributed from 25 August 1992, during the first year of the Siege of Sarajevo. One of the editors-in-chief in the coming years was Senad Pećanin.

Dani continued its publication under harsh conditions throughout and despite the Siege. The magazine received the Award for Best Paper in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1993 by the former Association of Journalists of BiH (today BH Novinari), award of the Open Society Foundation BIH and the Olof Palme Prize in 1998. The paper was financially supported by the Swedish Helsinki Committee, Press Now and the Open Society Foundations. [3]

In 2010, the magazine was bought by Oslobođenje, when Pećanin stepped down as the editor-in-chief. [4] Dani continues to be published with the current editor-in-chief Saša Rukavina. [3]

In April 2023 the magazine issued the final printed edition before switching to a wholly online model of release. Chief editor Saša Rukavina reasoned that technology has advanced so much that printed newspapers can no longer compete with online portals and social media. [5]
