The level of biophysical and socio-economic impact scrutiny for projects and investments are becoming more stringent with commensurate legislations that require rigorous assessment and holistic impact mitigation strategies. Funding agencies such as the World Bank Group (IFC, IDA, IBRD) and the Millennium Challenge Corporation are also becoming insistent on the need to meet beneficiary country requirements, and in many cases their international standards to facilitate timely approvals, disbursement of funds and community acceptance.

These requires intricate levels of field study, data acquisition, analyses and engagements that will ensure objective identification and context specific management of local and regional based impacts.
