Controls and safeguards
Do not publish a project without an update owner, evidence date, partner-approved attribution and a truthful current status.
Avoid identifiable beneficiary detail and collect only the contact data needed for the selected project action.
HIGH - stale status, unsupported impact, beneficiary privacy and platform abandonment can make a showcase misleading.
What to measure
Project cases current within the review cycle
Follow-up: Notify the project owner of each qualified action within one business day and run a monthly status review that archives or corrects any case without current evidence.
