Audit Tool developed within REECOL was presented online by Technical University of Crete (TUC) at the International Multidisciplinary Symposium “UNIVERSITARIA SIMPRO 2026”, which took place in Universitatea din Petroșani on October 22 – 24, 2026.
The research paper “Development of an Audit Tool for the Ecological Rehabilitation of Open Pit Mines” focuses on the development of a specialized tool for assessing and monitoring the ecological rehabilitation of open-pit mines, contributing to more effective environmental #management by combining technical, environmental, and socioeconomic criteria. It was tested in a post-mining area undergoing rehabilitation in Ptolemais, Western Macedonia, Greece. The results highlight its potential to support early warning and adaptive management in rehabilitation projects.
