PROJECT
FINISHED
Waste heaps are often wrongly associated with the dark past of the former collieries. The French-Walloon mining area, that was long seen as the opposite of sustainable development, has changed a lot since theclosure of the sites: a whole new biodiversity has developed over the last fifty years and is now one of the richest in the area. The development and conservation of biodiversity brings added value to the cross-bordermine sites. In addition, the partners turn the area into a touristic, historical and educational attraction.
