In the United States, the origin of the Social Impact Assessment (SIA) traces back to the National

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of the 1970s.  Under NEPA, social impact assessments are federally mandated and performed in conjunction with Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA)[1]

Though the Social Impact Assessment has long been considered subordinate to the Environmental Impact Assessment, new models, such as the Environmental Social Impact Assessment, take a more integrated approach where equal weight is given to both the Social and Environmental Impact Assessements. [2]

Storytelling has long been a tradition in many cultures.[3][4]

 

Coyote is always between places, not fixed, adaptable. [5] All the animals and plants around him are fixed within their environments. He is the opposite. Coyote has "no way, no nature, no knowledge".[6]
