Description:
The story of Junkovac in Serbia highlights systemic violations of human rights, neglect and wrong doings in the lignite mining sector that have not changed since EBRD involvement began in 2000. The same can be said of Kolubara and also the Kostolac region of Serbia. Junkovac is a village in the eastern part of the Kolubara mining complex, which is directly linked to the EBRD-financed Kolubara project signed and implemented in 2011. Junkovac is a actually the place where excavations from the so-called B and C fields (financed by the EBRD) are dumped just steps away from the village.
