Olympic Games for Climate Activists.

In 2008, Rok Rozman participated in the Summer Olympics. He is now an activist who has kayaked in six countries to defend rivers against dams.

The Balkans is one of the last regions in Europe with free-flowing rivers. Rok thus contributed to the establishment of the Balkan Defense. This unites river protection associations throughout Europe.

Slovenian Environment Minister Marko Maver said that hydropower is "one of Slovenia's greatest potential for a low-carbon future".
