Socio-economic Impact Assessment
Praxis has tackled a range of social, economic and cumulative effects impact assessments for both large and small scale projects. Complimenting our work on impact assessments, we also offer our clients expertise in benefit-cost analysis, non-market valuation, and human use and environmental quality studies.
