The feature on the impact of hydropower plant development on the last free-flowing water streams in the region and about the people defending the rivers was our most popular article last month. Here are also the others among the top three.

Be sure also to take a look at the most read pieces on our website’s version in Serbian language.

1 – Guarding rivers from harmful projects

Residents of Kruščica decided in 2017 to defend the river of the same name with their bodies. The fight in the village in Bosnia and Herzegovina lasted for five hundred days. Campaign Save the Blue Heart of Europe, which operates in the Balkans, supported the brave women together with other organizations and activists from around the world.
