The proposal involves conducting a pilot project wherein partner cities would each test different remediation techniques, resulting in multiple techniques being evaluated together.
Parameters such as economic feasibility, efficacy, and sustainability would be measured and analyzed rigorously throughout the process. Additionally, incorporating insights from diverse contexts and experiences will enrich the findings, potentially leading to more effective strategies for land remediation and urban development.
