Workshop: Unlocking the black box: solutions for sustainable management of old landfills
Chair / Presidente: Julia van der Heide (NL)
This engaging workshop is dedicated to exploring the complexities and challenges associated with old landfills through a case study from the Netherlands. With approximately 30,000 hectares of land occupied by these sites, they form an interesting component in current spatial issues, such as energy transition, housing construction, and green spaces. Thereby, they also are a potential risk for pollution of soil and groundwater. In this workshop, participants will delve into a compelling case study that highlights the inherent uncertainties surrounding old landfills, often referred to as "black boxes".
