During the workshop, students from Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Bulgarian and Albanian universities Katariina Kesküla, Rūta Zemīte, Jovita Ambrazaitytė, Ugnė Žaleniakaitė, Yoskan Mehmedov, Fatjon Mlloja and their supervisor Gregor Taul focused on the industrial landscape of Ida-Viru County and discussed the Püssi ash heap as a monumental heritage that deserves to be re-framed. In a situation where many of the ash heaps are on the verge of disappearing (e.g. they are used as fertiliser in fields), the students tried to come up with community-engaging and community-connecting activities that could focus on giving the ash heaps a new life.
