Our Strengths
- DPRA is committed to sustainable solutions uniquely developed to address the local conditions of particular projects. Our Team members are acknowledged international experts on sustainability. Furthermore, we believe in devising local solutions to local problems, while utilizing best practices available anywhere.
- DPRA offers innovative financial schemes to implement the overall plan without burden to the government and municipalities. We have devised innovative economic instruments and effective financial mechanisms to ensure that the sustainable development management projects will be largely self supporting, after a relatively small initial investment by the government.

We have the combination of social scientists, educational and business consultants, economic planners, environmental managers and urban planners to solve the complex problems of environmental planning, management and economic development.
- DPRA brings a wide reaching domestic and international experience in environmental management and sustainability projects involving multidisciplinary teams. We have led and coordinated engineering, planning and management firms to complete several domestic assignments and international environmental management projects in Canada and internationally.
