Today, project partners met online to dissuss the project progress. They focused on three work packages:
– WP 4 – Development of new solutions for post mining land reclamation and their testing in case study areas
– WP 5 – Short and long term monitoring of ecosystem rehabilitation
– WP 6 – Developing an audit catalogue to evaluate and certify ecological rehabilitation industry best practice of post-mining areas.
The REECOL partners from Greece – TUC and PPC met online on 05.12.2024 to work together on the project work package WP6 related to the development of an audit catalogue to evaluate and certify the ecological rehabilitation in postmining areas, taking into account industry best practices. More specifically, the main parts of the audit catalogue were defined and the rating system for the items of the catalogue was proposed. The subjects regarding the accompanying dashboard – visualization tool (Task 6.2) and the guidebook for the application of the audit catalogue (Task 6.3) were also preliminary discussed.
TUC team met to work on the development of an audit catalogue to evaluate and certify ecological rehabilitation of post-mining areas. In particular, the frame of the audit catalogue, its chapters with their main subjects and the way of their ratings were presented and discussed.
The REECOL partnership takes efforts to keep the project on track. The project coordinator Poltegor-Instytut organized online meeting, on 05.11.2024. The discussion covered organizational issues, and activities and challenges within work packages WP4, WP5, WP6. Necessary plans and arragements were made.
REECOL project was presented during the IV Climate and Biodiversity Conference, carried out within the Innovative Green Economy series. It was held at GIG on October 25, 2024, under the auspices of the Regional Observatory of the Transformation Process (https://obserwatorium.gig.eu/).
In the presentation entitled ‘Reclamation of Post-Mining Areas in the Context of Climate Change Adaptation and Biodiversity Protection in Urbanized Areas,’, particular focus was given to the project task 3.3 “Climate change influence on post-mining rehabilitation schemes” coordinated by GIG.
