With our multidisciplinary team of sociologists, anthropologists, geographers, economists and communications experts, we are well positioned to analyze the human environments in which projects are undertaken. Leveraging our cutting-edge knowledge of the sector with 30 years of experience, GENIVAR’s professionals are well aware that the concept of social acceptability is crucial to project success. Over the past three decades, we have helped our clients to position and optimize their projects with a view to maximizing acceptance by the populations affected either directly or indirectly. Projects’ social acceptability hinges on multi-sector studies and opinion/perception surveys, as well as on communications with stakeholders. These processes make it possible not only to implement projects with higher levels of social acceptance, but also to adapt them more effectively to the local context. In addition, our strategic planning team helps municipal and private-sector clients to design and implement long-term strategic and economic planning objectives, including sustainable development planning.

Our services include:

• Economic studies

• Strategic planning (municipal and private-sector)
