Projects with significant social implications, such as dams, highways, industries, mining activities, or urban development, usually require a detailed SIA. During this stage, the nature, size, location, and likely social consequences of the project are examined. The objective is to identify whether the project has the potential to affect communities, livelihoods, public services, or vulnerable
