• Human rights and impact assessment: clarifying the connections in practice (2013, background): “While advances in SIA have been important in terms of managing impacts (Esteves et al. 2012; Vanclay & Esteves 2011), without specific consideration of all established human rights norms, it is possible that they might not all be considered.”
• Sustainability assessment: the state of the art (2012, background): “…social and health impact assessments (ESHIAs), such as those required by financial institutions operating in accordance with the Equator Principles (Esteves et al. 2012), could also be considered forms of sustainability assessment, and what Hacking and Guthrie (2008) term ‘para assessments’, such…”
• Conceptualizing Company Response to Community Protest: Principles to Achieve a Social License to Operate (2019, background): “However, simply “throwing money” at an issue without formalizing a culturally-appropriate, well-designed, and implemented social impact management plan and community development agreement negotiated with the affected communities does not mitigate impacts [85,106].”
• The Social Framework for Projects: a conceptual but practical model to assist in assessing, planning and managing the social impacts of projects (2017, methodology): “The Social Framework is consistent with current understandings in the field of SIA (Vanclay 2002, 2003, 2012; Esteves & Vanclay 2009; Esteves et al. 2012; Vanclay et al. 2015; Mathur 2016) and can be seen as an overarching framework for SIA.”
• How social impact assessment can contribute to conflict management (2014, methodology): “Therefore, the approach and methodology of social impact assessment (SIA) (Esteves et al., 2012; Franks and Vanclay, 2013), which analyzes the social impacts associated with these types of projects, is appropriate and necessarily addresses conflict management (Kapelus et al., 2011; Sairinen, 2011).”
