Social Impact Assessments of Large Dams Throughout the World


COMMENTARY 

Your second to last reading is the article, "Social Impact Assessments of Large Dams Throughout the World: Lessons Learned over Two Decades," by Dominique Égré & Pierre Senécal, two practitioners with many years of experience conducting SIAs for large infrastructure projects. They review SIA lessons from their experiences with mega-dam projects in China, Turkey, and Colombia.

Throughout this course you have learned how large-scale real estate projects will almost always result in some combination of positive and negative environmental and social impacts. One of the main reasons for carrying out assessments is to ensure that potential impacts are identified ahead of time so that steps can be taken to minimize or mitigate adverse impacts while ensuring that positive impacts are maximized. Assessments put reliable information into the hands of all relevant stakeholders, so they can participate in regulatory decisions regarding proposed development.

Most countries require some form of SIA for large-scale projects, either separately or as part of required EIAs.  As you might imagine, there are many factors that can influence the effectiveness of efforts to identify and evaluate potential social impacts. The state-of-the-art of SIA is still somewhat undeveloped.

Reflection questions:

1.   What does the case tell you about the challenges and value of carrying out social impact assessment for high profile or controversial projects?

2.   What parallels do you see between the likely social impacts of these dam projects and the social impacts of large-scale real estate development? Which of the lessons Egre and Senecal highlight would be most relevant in the real estate field?

3.   Can you identify connections between the challenges of effective SIA identified here and the institutional conditions for socially responsible corporate behavior proposed by Campbell?

4.   Can an SIA or EIA be considered effective if it does not result in changes in project design?
