In developing countries, the integration of SEA in decision-making processes is important because large segments of the population rely heavily on primary sector activities for their livelihoods and are disproportionately affected by environmental degradation, but often have little influence in high level decisions about the management and allocation
of natural resources (Kende-Robb and VanWicklin, 2008; Retief et al., 2008). Incorporating sustainability principles and participatory approaches into SEA can promote accountability and transparency, allow for the integration of various types of knowledge, and can have a direct impact on the well-being of citizens, along with the potential to be a key component of poverty reduction.
