‘Dobri pastir’ Ivan je iz Šubičeve prikorakal pod gore in pomiril pohlevne ovčice, ki so se zbale prihajajoče povodnji: “Ne bojte se, to delamo za dobro vas in podnebja”. Ovčice so en mesec tuhtale, potem pa rekle: ‘Beeeeeejž stran!” Danes zaganjamo kampanjo REK NE DAMO! in k njej vabimo vse, ki pijete vodo in vam ni vseeno, če jo Ivan in ministranti prodajo multinacionalkam, spremenijo v smrdeče akumulacije, ter iz nje naredijo biznis za svoj žep. Dovolj je bilo represije, dovolj je bilo laganja, dovolj je bilo norčevanja iz nas. Dovolj je bilo besedičenja. Čas je za upor! Kako se priključiš? – Za začetek deli tole grafiko, naj ljudje izvejo, […]

SLOVENSKO V luči boja proti pandemiji virusa covid-19 je večina evropskih držav, med njimi tudi vse balkanske države, pričela izvajati restriktivne ukrepe, med njimi take, ki prepovedujejo prehajanje državnih mej, zbiranje na javnih površinah in v splošnem omejujejo gibanje. Zaradi tega je letos Balkan Rivers Tour 5, s katerim bi vsaj petkrat prečkali državne meje, skušali na treh dogodkih zbrati vsaj po 300 ljudi in s kreativnimi akcijami povezali ljudi iz celotnega sveta, odpovedan. Ni pa še vse izgubljeno, saj je naš načrt, da Balkan Rivers Tour 5 v celoti oz. še v večjem obsegu izpeljemo spomladi leta 2021. To je seveda velik udarec za Savo in reke porečja Save, […]

During the 39 days of kayaking (from April 24th till June 1st) we will bring together locals, […]

After a year of travelling the world trough festivals (33 festivals in 27 countries, 10 awards), screening on a Slovenian national television and many events in the Balkans, The Undamaged is now hitting the world wide web. Follow the Balkan Rivers Tour 1, a rowdy crew of whitewater kayakers, filmers, photographers and friends who decided to stand up for the rivers, travelling from Slovenia to Albania for 36 days, kayaking 23 rivers in 6 countries to protest the dams and show the world the secret, wild rivers of the Balkans. The film honours everyday people and local activists who are fighting to defend rivers and aims to spread the word […]

Shod Soča za Vse!, ki se je zgodil v soboto, 26. oktobra 2019 je zbral do sedaj največje število kajakašev v flotili na Otoni (150) in kasneje še pred Občino Kobarid (200). Naš namen je bil enostaven. Odločevalcem smo hoteli predati 1317 podpisov peticije “Pošteni pogoji za vse uporabnike Soče” z zahtevami. Ker se vabilu na dogodek ni odzval nobeden od treh Posoških županov, smo peticjio in zahteve nalepili na vhodna vrata občine. O njihovem odzivu vas bodo obvestili, takoj ko ga prejmemo. Soča za vse! Protest Soča for All! that happened on Saturday, October 26th 2019 gathered the biggest crowd of kayakers in a flotilla on Otona (150) and […]

To jesen so nam župani in občinski svetniki Zgornjega Posočja namesto kostanja zakuhali predlog za nov Odlok o upravljanju z reko Sočo. Predlagane spremembe Odloka odkrito prikazujejo njihov način dojemanja reke Soče kot gosi, ki nosi zlata jajca, lastnik teh pa naj bi bile občine. Nov Odlok je načrt bogatenja občin na račun nič krivih kajakašev; taistih ljudi, ki so v 60-tih letih preprečili potopitev doline z jezovi, v 80-tih glas o dolini Soče ponesli v svet in se še vedno borijo za divjo Sočo, ki vsem prinaša koristi. Za lažjo ilustracijo zgornje izjave v spodnjih alinejah najdete nekatere predlagane dopolnitve že obstoječega Odloka o določitvi plovbnega režima na reki […]

Naš dokumentarec The Undamaged (Nepoškodovane) bo ta torek, 8. oktobra ob 20:50h na TVS 1 doživel televizijsko premiero. Vse od začetka post produkcije je bil namreč naš namen, da film po festivalskem obdobju doseže kar se da veliko gledalcev prav prek televizijskih projekcij. Upamo, da bo to prva od mnogih. Uživajte!

BALKAN RIVERS TOUR 4 – WEEK 3 RECAP Battling for Bulgarian Rivers Venturing into a pocket of the Balkans not yet explored, the Balkan Rivers Tour team had no idea what to expect as we drove south to Bulgaria. We broke up the drive with a few days on Montenegro’s Tara and Piva rivers, enjoying in the fun and friends at Kayak Fest Tara, before we rallied the winding roads from Montenegro’s Tara Canyon to Bulgaria’s Kresna Gorge. With over 10 hours on the road, the crew has plenty of time to brainstorm, visualize and plan for the week ahead. But no amount of dreaming could prepare them for the […]

The countdown is on! Just ONE WEEK until the start of the last week of Balkan Rivers Tour 4. We have never been to Bulgaria with the Balkan Rivers Tour and we are very much looking forward to changing that. Stunning rivers that are unfortunately in danger of being destroyed by dams and a highway, passionate local river defenders, scientists, kayakers and fishermen and a cool program provide some serious potential to making this a severely special week. For full program on the BRT4 | Week2: Slovenia, click here. Basecamp will be here: Eco Village Stara Kresna | www.starakresna.com | 41.789179, 23.178571 To join us in the basecamp (3 meals […]

A detailed program with the day-to-day plan for Week 3: Bulgaria is now available.

We are planning loads of extra events; outdoor films, lectures and workshops. And we will wrap up the week with a flotilla and a party to finish the Balkan Rivers Tour 4 in style!
