EIA Articles & Thought Pieces:

Registrants to the EIA Quality Mark scheme are not only committed to delivering high quality assessments and reports for their clients, but also actively work to improve practice. One approach that has been taken to do this is to stimulate discussion and debate through short thought provoking articles about different aspects of EIA practice.

The growing library of articles set out on this page act to:

  • Set out advice on core stages in the EIA process;
  • Explore long standing challenges that need to be debated to be advanced;
  • Discuss new issues faced by practitioners; and
  • Set out concerns on difficulties that hold back effective EIA.

The articles are set out per registrant; however, a number of articles have common themes (e.g. screening). To identify articles by topic we recommend using the Edit > Find on this page tool and search for a specific subject area.

New articles will be added to this page on a monthly basis and you can also access a number of the latest EIA Quality Mark articles via http://www.environmentalistonline.com/qmark
