Web INTEractive management tool for coal Regions in transition

The project WINTER, funded by the European Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS) started in July 2022. The main aim of the project is to develop a web-interactive platform for the management of coal regions in transition to provide guidance and facilitate stakeholder engagement, by identifying and highlighting the available information that is required to improve the current transition plans for the pilot coal transition regions. Local authorities and coal industry stakeholders will be able to utilise the developed user-friendly web-based management tool and implement it on other regions with similar concerns. The project’s results will contribute to the repurposing of closed and/or abandoned coal sites and promote the added value of research outputs targeted at the exploitation of new products and markets regarding the coal industry.
