Stakeholder Management & Community Participation
Stakeholder and community consultation is not only focussed
on meeting legislative requirements but is also about engaging
people on diverse issues and creating value for projects. We
pride ourselves on building relationships which lead to working
together in partnership with the public and creating innovative
ways of finding solutions.

The largest risk for any environmental process to be discredited
pertains to inadequate public and stakeholder participation.
In this regard, we have always complied with the legislative
requirements and has an excellent track record on all
environmental assessments undertaken to date.

Our experience includes providing support on significant linear
infrastructure development EIAs to date as well as undertaking
community participation consultation (CPC) for the Reya Vaya
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project which entailed the construction of
pedestrian bridges, an underground bus station and non-motorised
transport systems. We have also undertaken stakeholder engagement
processes in environmental strategic fields which included various
Provincial Environmental Outlook Reports as well as updating of
strategic reports for Municipalities.
