Follow the food to its impact
A proposal can align with development goals before it has demonstrated impact. CaribVista will need a baseline, a delivery mechanism and independently reviewable results.
- 01A dated baseline
- 02Consistent measurement
- 03Independent review
01
Households and workers
Record food delivered, its nutritional composition, recipients, affordability and reliability. Assess household food access using an appropriate validated method with a qualified local partner.
Measure paid work, wage compliance, training competence, worker safety and participation in decisions. Training attendance alone is not evidence of livelihood improvement.
02
Land, water and resilience
Record habitat exclusions, soil and water indicators, energy use and how the system behaves after weather shocks. Agroforestry may offer benefits when designed for the site; it cannot guarantee survival of a hurricane.
03
Transparent reporting
Publish definitions, dates and methods alongside results. Distinguish observed outcomes from estimates and targets. Use an independent reviewer with a real agreement for any claim of external assurance.
