Mining
The research undertaken by EBC focuses specifically on technical social assessments of impacts and change and has included survey research of communities and mine employees, population and workforce projections and micro economic impact assessments. This research normally supports the more extensive and broader community consultation and participation activities undertaken by EBC.
