NEW MINES, OLD CONFLICTS
Socio-Environmental Mobilisation in Bosnia and Herzegovina
For free
The latest publication by the Heinrich Böll Foundation, Sarajevo Office, maps eight key cases of socio-ecological conflicts linked to extractive industry projects in BiH—from Majevica to Kupres and Ozren. It explores how the new wave of extractivism, driven by the EU’s demand for critical minerals essential for the green transition, deepens existing inequalities while raising urgent questions of environmental justice. Through a combination of texts, maps, photographs, and local testimonies, the publication documents how communities mobilise to defend their environment, water, health, and livelihoods.
Available in BHS language and English, both in print and digital editions.
