Foresters Environmental Consultants Ltd
From initial impact assessments to ongoing compliance monitoring — comprehensive environmental and safety services delivered by Uganda's trusted NEMA-certified consultants.
We provide the full spectrum of environmental and health & safety consulting required for project development, regulatory compliance, and ongoing environmental management across Uganda and East Africa.
A comprehensive ESIA is required by law before most major development projects can proceed in Uganda. Our team prepares rigorous, NEMA-compliant ESIAs that assess biophysical, social, economic and cultural impacts — providing your project with the regulatory approval it needs to proceed.
Periodic environmental compliance auditing is mandatory for all licensed projects under Uganda's National Environment Act. We conduct thorough audits to assess operational compliance with NEMA conditions, identify gaps, and recommend corrective actions — protecting your project from regulatory sanctions.
We design and implement comprehensive Environmental Health & Safety management systems that protect workers, communities and the environment — aligned with ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 standards and Uganda's Occupational Safety & Health Act.
Where projects require land acquisition or displacement of communities, a Resettlement Action Plan ensures affected people are treated fairly and their livelihoods are protected. Our RAPs are prepared in accordance with Uganda's Land Act, IFC Performance Standard 5, and World Bank OP/BP 4.12.
Environmental and HSE supervision during construction ensures that commitments made in the ESIA and ESMP are implemented on the ground — protecting your project, your workers, and the surrounding environment throughout the construction phase.
Uganda's wetlands are critical ecosystems that provide water purification, flood control, biodiversity habitat and community livelihoods. We provide expert wetland delineation, restoration planning, and ecosystem services valuation — for developers needing NEMA permits and for restoration projects.
A clear, structured approach — from initial enquiry to final report delivery and NEMA submission.
We discuss your project requirements, assess the scope of environmental study needed, and provide a detailed proposal and timeline.
We define the study scope, prepare Terms of Reference (TOR), and plan fieldwork — coordinating with your team and relevant authorities.
Our specialists conduct rigorous field surveys, stakeholder engagement, and environmental monitoring across the project area.
All data is analysed, impacts assessed and a comprehensive, NEMA-compliant study report is prepared with your input.
We submit the completed study to NEMA and relevant authorities, managing the review process and responding to queries until approval is granted.
