Year: 2014
Type: other
Abstract: Over the past few days, an unprecedented natural catastrophe has affected considerable portions of Bosnia, Serbia and Croatia. “Not enough attention is given to the irreversible process of climate change that is affecting the world. Bosnia and Serbia, poor countries in the European context, have reduced capacities to react to and handle dire consequences of extreme weather events, and the poorest communities are often the most vulnerable to these ‘invisible’ risks”, argues Sonja Avlijaš
