RT Conference Proceedings T1 Prioritizing Impacts in Environmental and Social Impact Assessment : developing a semi-standardized and participatory approach applied to a golf-based tourism project A1 Ortiz Noguera, Guadalupe A1 Domínguez Gómez, José Andrés A1 Aledo Tur, Antonio A1 Urgeghe, Anna M. A1 Relinque Medina, Fernando AB Environmental and Social Impact Assessment is an extremely useful tool for identifying and evaluating the social and environmental repercussions of a wide range of projects. Especially when the project and its impacts are very complex, an ESIA can result in the identification of a high number of impacts needing to be prioritized in order to be addressed effectively and efficiently. This paper presents a methodological proposal for the prioritization of impacts within an ESIA based on participatory and social justice criteria. This methodological approach is structured into four main phases: 1) Creating the stakeholders’ platform; 2) Preliminary identification and assessment of impacts; 3) Categorizing and reducing the selection of impacts; 4) Assessing and prioritizing impacts using MCDA. The process is illustrated by its application to an on-going ESIA on a golf-based tourism project in Huelva (Spain).
