Longue Durée of WEF in post-extraction landscapes: Learning from Gauteng and Limpopo Regions to develop an interdisciplinary approach
[2022-2025]
Co-Principal Investigator/ PhD Supervisor
By mapping the spatialized relationships, users can be informed and made aware of the intertwining nature of mining, landscape and the history of WEF resources. The aim of this research project is, among other things, to establish a research and design community, and to create a methodological approach in which the spatial dynamics and long-duree interactions between water, energy and food are analysed. By means of these expected yields, they aim to contribute to a sustainable vision for the repurposing of post-extraction landscapes.
