We define success metrics with partners at project outset and monitor through:

• • Baseline & endline assessments: Quantifying changes in water use, emissions, or waste diverted.
• • Technology adoption rates: Tracking scaling of piloted solutions.
• • Policy influence: Monitoring integration of research into regulations.
• • Capacity building metrics: Professionals trained and researchers retained.
