SRA is a Global Leader in Land Access and Resettlement

We help responsible organisations access land and manage displacement impacts through resettlement and livelihood restoration.

How We Work

We work collaboratively with our clients’ teams and affected communities to plan and implement resettlement and livelihood restoration programs in a responsible and sustainable manner.

We are results-oriented and hands-on, working largely at project sites alongside our clients and their stakeholders.

We apply international standards and best practices in a deeply pragmatic and locally appropriate manner.

Project Due Diligence & Reviews

We undertake project due diligence and reviews to identify risks and impacts, assess feasibility, and provide a clear roadmap, including budgets and schedules.

Strategic Plans

We develop management strategies for specific land takes, working closely with the wider project team.  These strategies address land access, displacement, resettlement, livelihood restoration, and overall land management for life of project.
