Ontario Association for Impact Assessment

The Ontario Association for Impact Assessment (OAIA) was founded in 1994 as a registered not-for-profit organization focused on the practice of impact assessment in Ontario. OAIA draws on the strength of its voluntary membership of researchers, practitioners, and users of various types of impact assessment.

Sectors represented include federal, provincial, territorial, municipal and Indigenous government, engineering, consulting, law, health, education, academic, not-for-profit, finance, students, and private citizens. Members from Indigenous groups and organizations include community leaders, Indigenous knowledge holders and environmental stewards.
