Summary: | These Guidelines attempt to expand on
social impact assessments (SIAs) and other assessment tools,
such as environmental impact assessments (EIAs) and
macro-economic planning processes conducted by government
(local economic development planning), to develop a more
comprehensive set of guidelines that examine positive
impacts as well as opportunities for enhancing
socio-economic development around the proposed development.
The resulting assessment contributes to the development of
social plans or community development plans. |
