We exist to
change that.
SP Growth Advisor was established to fill a real gap in Lao PDR: the need for a truly independent, technically rigorous, and locally embedded firm that can deliver Health Impact Assessment, Social Inclusion, Gender Analysis, and Climate Risk work to international standards — without being affiliated with project contractors.
We serve hydropower, mining, industrial zone, agriculture, transport, and urban development projects. Our clients include developers seeking MOH approval, financiers requiring IFC or World Bank compliance, and government agencies building evidence for national planning.
Our team includes public health specialists, epidemiologists, sociologists, gender experts, climate scientists, and GIS analysts. Our field staff speak Lao, Khmu, and Hmong — and have worked in every major province across Laos, from Phongsaly to Attapeu.
To provide independent, evidence-based impact assessment and advisory that helps development projects meet Lao PDR regulations and international standards — while genuinely protecting the health, rights, and livelihoods of affected communities.
