WHAT IS SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (SIA)?
Social Impact Assessment (SIA) is the process of assessing the intended positive or negative social impact of a project on its communities and stakeholders. Identifying these social impacts assists to develop and implement Social Impact Management Plans designed to minimise the negative impacts of a major project.
