  ABSTRACT: The current tools and indicators intended to measure social impact of services systems can hardly be applied in low-population environments where limited resources and very small and homogeneous sample sizes make it difficult and unclear. This research work explores the evaluation of socio-cultural sustainability aspects of services projected in these contexts through the integration of different approaches and tools. An innovative and comprehensive framework for impact assessment is proposed from the study of the models currently applied and the application of suitable tools designed according to the challenges and opportunities associated with low-population areas. As a result of the application of this methodology, different actions developed to obtain socio-cultural impact were collected, classifying them according to the time in which they were to take place and according to the degree of impact expected on people and spaces. Constant improvement and adaptation of the toolbox will enhance its applicability in diverse contexts and enable a more accurate evaluation of the project’s long-term outcomes.
