Evidence through 4 September 2026. A public-interest reference, not a live emergency service.

Availability is not the same as access.

A school, clinic, market, water point, or project can exist without being reachable, affordable, safe, staffed, linguistically accessible, or trusted. Wellbeing evidence must connect facilities to real journeys and outcomes.

Research cutoff: 4 September 2026. Definitions and verification status travel with each claim.

A fuller access model

Count the service, then test the journey.

Livelihoods and markets

Agriculture, jhum, wage work, trade, tourism, public employment, remittances, and care work interact differently across places.

Education and language

Enrolment does not establish attendance, learning, retention, language inclusion, or the safety and cost of travel.

Health, water, and sanitation

Facility totals should be paired with staff, medicine, referral, water reliability, travel time, affordability, and outcome evidence.

A facility matters only when travel, staffing, language, supplies, continuity, and referral also work.

Topic pathways

Follow the complete service chain.

Each route separates assets and programmes from staffing, access, quality, use and outcome.

Economy and livelihoods

Agriculture, jhum, markets, labour, tourism, migration and unpaid care need place-aware evidence.

Public investment

Projects need location-aware and outcome-aware scrutiny.

Questions for a project record

Budgets and completion notices are starting points, not final proof of public benefit.

  • What problem and population was the project designed to serve?
  • Who selected the location and who can reach it?
  • Was community consultation documented in accessible languages?
  • Are procurement, completion, maintenance, and operating capacity visible?
  • What distributional or environmental effects were measured after delivery?
