Are you working in soil remediation, industrial land-use planning, or the management of mining and industrial by-products like phosphogypsum (PG)?

The FIC-Fighters Community of Practice (CoP) is now live on LinkedIn — a collaborative space for professionals, researchers, and stakeholders committed to advancing sustainable and innovative solutions in PG waste valorisation.

As part of our EU-funded FIC-Fighters project, this group brings together experts from industry, government, academia, and civil society to:

  • Exchange knowledge on PG recovery technologies
  • Discuss policy and regulatory developments
  • Share best practices and case studies from across Europe
  • Collaborate on circular economy strategies and urban sustainability

Engage in regular discussion posts, monthly networking events, and exclusive updates from the FIC-Fighters project — including insights from our pilot sites and access to key results.
