Socio-Economic Impact. Assessment (SEIA) Socio-Economic Impact Assessment (SEIA) refers to systematic analysis of various social and economic characteristics of human being living in a given geographical area. The geographical area is often called Study Area or Impact Area. SEIA is carried out simultaneously with Environment Impact Assessment (EIA).The prime objective of SEIA is to identify and evaluate potential socio- economic and cultural impacts of a proposed development project on the lives and conditions of people, their families and their communities. If the potential impacts are adverse, the SEIA will assist the promoter and other stakeholders to reduce, remove or prevent these impacts from happening. The study area consists of the core area where the proposed project is expected to come up and a buffer area encircling the project area with a radius of 10 kilometers from the periphery of the core area. For every new project, existing projects bound for expansion, modernization and change in product mix, socio-economic impact assessment is mandatory. The Socio-economic impact assessment focuses the effect of the project on social and economic well-being of the community. The effect may be direct or indirect. Again, the impact may be positive or negative. M/s A.M.D.C Mines and Minerals Lessee: Smt. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx

Socio-Economic Impact. The biomedical sector is one of the most promising areas of applications for the 3D additive manufacturing like stereolithography, ink-jet printing and fused deposition modelling. The combination of biomedical imaging and individual 3D design combined with the development of novel biomedical materials and the fast progress in cell cultivation and tissue engineering will enable significant breakthroughs in regenerative medicine in close futureNovel, patient specific medical devices could be developed using the manufacturing principles developed in “ArtiVasc 3D”, to name one example. Further examples with high socio-economic impact are listed below:  The developed in vitro cell cultivation system should be further developed towards a specific test and model system for different (soft) tissues. This would allow their use e.g. as a realistic cytotoxicity test bench (to study the reactions of cultivated relevant cell types towards different (toxic) substances). This could not only reduce costs of material tests (e.g. for applications in the fields of medical products or cosmetics) but also avoid a number of in-vivo studies on animals.The designed vascular vessels can be used in either vascular graft tissue engineering or organ tissue engineering by altering their diameters. The 3D modelling tool provides a flexible method to generate tubular structures. It reduces the labour and time required in generating complex 3D structures not only on this application but also on other applications.  The methods developed in WP6 “Matrix-Tissue Interaction” may have the potential for future commercial use in development of testing/screening assays replacing in part some of the presently used animal-based methods. Providing methods, which are ethically (more) widely accepted by the public, will be essential for future research, development and therapy. In an economic context, the studies will help to reduce the price of some studies and will hopefully enable a wider use of the methodology in different fields of science and development.  The combination of biomolecule-based matrices and patient’s own (autologous) cells to form tissue substitutions will enable the fabrication of bioartificial implants. The availability of autologous biological implants will in future greatly reduce any adverse effects of the organism like the foreign body reaction upon tissue transplantations in the case of trauma or disease.  The automated handling of cell-matrix bioinks by pneumatic disp...

Socio-Economic Impact. Ports are a vital part of a country’s economy and a crucial link for integration in the expanding world economy. Historically ports have created employment through backward and forward linkages like freight forwarders, agents, shipping agencies, banking and insurance business. Therefore, the benefits of investing in transport infrastructure are not limited to travel-time saving (Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx, 2001).13 Induced benefits can also be assessed from an environmental perspective where less pollution such as noise, particulates and carbon that accrue as social benefits in terms of quality of life and healthcare costs. Due to reduced logistic cost, incomes to industries trading through these routes increases and also creates employment opportunities in these industries. Such incomes generate in turn re-spending which further induces employment and income through the economic multiplier effect leading to economic growth.14
