Nov 28, 2025

These images document the FIC-Fighters in Veles: Field Work and Community Engagement project’s work in Veles, North Macedonia, one of the key case studies where the project explores innovative approaches to phosphogypsum management. The gallery captures field research activities, site assessments of the phosphogypsum stack and industrial zone, and the surrounding landscape. It also showcases the September 2025 Citizen Workshop at Europe House, where residents gathered to share their perspectives and envision future possibilities for the area. Together, these moments reflect the project’s integrated approach — combining scientific investigation with meaningful community dialogue to transform industrial legacies into opportunities for sustainable development.
