SMART objectives
1. Clearly defined and specific?
Yes. The objective specifies what will be done (develop and implement an early warning system), where (five flood-prone villages in northern Bangladesh), and who/what it benefits (communities exposed to flooding).
2. Measurable progress?
Yes. Progress can be measured quantitatively by:
Number of villages covered (target = 5)
Number of households receiving alerts
Number of functional monitoring stations installed
Reduction in flood-related losses or response times
3. Achievable with given resources?
Partially/Yes, but depends on resources. Achievability depends on:
Availability of monitoring equipment and communication infrastructure
Trained personnel for operation and maintenance
Funding for installation, training, and community engagementWith adequate support, it is feasible.
4. Alignment with main climate risk?
Yes. The objective directly addresses flood risk, which is the primary climate hazard in northern Bangladesh.
5. Clear timeline?
Yes. The target completion date is explicitly December 2026, providing a concrete timeframe for planning and implementation.
