ABSTRACT<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developmental activities are spatially and temporally specific in nature, and\u00a0 are characterized by impact that are felt more in their areas of localization, and hence the imperative for the\u00a0 involvement of the locals\/ indigenous people in (whose domains such projects are situated\u00a0 in)\u00a0 the\u00a0 impact assessment process of such projects. This is\u00a0 because those who live on the land and harvest its resources have closer affinity to it, and therefore have more intimate knowledge of the land, and\u00a0 its functioning, than the outsiders. These groups of people are therefore, on better stead to contribute to better and efficient management of their environment. This study assesses the roles, promises and challenges of the EIA tool, as well as indigenous knowledge in environmental sustainability and well being through content analysis, and recommends the incorporation of Indigenous Environmental knowledge (IEK) into the EIA processes, since most EIAs do not adequately serve their purposes lately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
