An environmental impact assessment is undertaken to determine how a particular activity might affect the environment. In other words, the importance of EIA is basically to understand the positive and negative impact of any project to the local communities and to the nation before and after the project commission.
EIA is not only a legal mad mandatory activity for prospective developers of any project, but the data from an EIA process also places moral responsibility of the project developer to put in place appropriate mechanisms to ensure that the environment is exploited in the most sustainable way possible.
Ecofocus works with governments, private organizations, researchers as well as students to carry out Environmental Impact Assessments ahead of major projects and events and make appropriate recommendations on how to avoid risks, and mitigate the negative impacts of the project on the environment.
Additionally, Ecofocus works with regulatory authorities as an independent broker carrying out verifications and monitoring of environmental safeguards.
