Transparency commitment
No vanity metrics. No invented impact.
When we publish numbers, they will include source, reporting period, methodology, and limitations. Where we cannot yet measure, we will say so.
Public outcomes ledger
Every number we will publish, defined in advance.
We define the measure and the source before there is a number to report, so nothing is invented later.

Reporting policy
Every future figure will be published with its reporting period, methodology, source, and limitations. Where a measure is estimated or incomplete, we will say so in the same place we publish the number.
