SERBIA IS FACING THE BIGGEST NATURAL DISASTER IN PAST 120 YEARS

Serbia is going through the worst floods ever recorded. The situation is much harder than can be imagined! Thousands of people are being evacuated, many of them are still waiting to be rescued.

Serbia is bracing for another flood wave from the Sava, swollen by the heaviest rains since records began 120 years ago.

Tens of thousands of people have been displaced and swaths of agricultural land devastated. Total number of victims hasn’t been announced yet.

The most critical situation is in the Sava, Kolubara, Mačva, Morava, Pomoravlje districts in western and central parts of the country.

The situation is the worst in the Belgrade municipality of Obrenovac. Police and army in helicopters are trying to prevent further damage, after the Kolubara river burst its banks and flooded 90 per cent of the town.

Serbia receives help from abroad but much more is needed, please publish those appeals at your news and help rescuing operations.

The Belgrade Design Week was the best design conference I have ever enjoyed – the specific spirit of the city in a kind of in between status, the rough tension which can still be felt ten years after the bombs, the pride and the looking for new orientation especially in the young generation – all this is giving the BDW a special flair far away from the current events of the global design circus. In addition the enthusiastic organizational team trying hardly but unsuccessfully to keep the program along the schedules, the informal exchange between the international speakers, the loss of any discipline, the parties on the river … what ever and how ever the interrelations between these aspects are working – it makes the BDW an unique, likeable, inspiring and productive event, I will never forget.
