Turning Know­ledge into Action

The River Collective returned to the Balkans and this time a week-long Students for Rivers Camp was organized on the Neretva River in Bosnia and Herzegovina. After a dry summer, September welcomed us with plentiful rain and an enriched Neretva. We established our basecamp in Ulog, in between two extremes. Upstream, one of the most biodiverse and unobstructed rivers of Europe. Downstream, a newly constructed 43 meter high dam. Once filled, the reservoir would reach right up to where we pitched our tents for the week.

The River Collective is extending its innovative educational initiative to South America, inviting 14 university students from diverse academic backgrounds to embark on a transformative journey along the Marañón River in Peru.
