General adaptation objective.
"Increase the resilience of vulnerable rural households by protecting both residential structures and home-based food production from seasonal flood damage."
Goal refining into SMART objective format.
Specific.Elevate the earthen plinths of 120 vulnerable homes by 3 feet and provide training to 130 local farmers about construction and maintenance of flood vegetable bed to allow for flood-proof vegetable production on the raised grounds.
Measurable. Success will be documented by the completion of 120 elevated plinths and the survival of at least 80% of household garden crops during the next flood cycle and 20% increase in household vegetable consumption.
Achievable. This uses manual labor and low-cost local materials, which is feasible for a government with limited resources compared to building concrete flood walls.
Relevant. This directly addresses both parts of the scenario: protecting homes from water entry and protecting crops from being washed away.
Time-bound. The project will be completed within a 12 month period, finishing before the 2027 monsoon season.
Rewritten adaptation goal objective based on SMART
"By the start of the 2027 monsoon, the local government will protect 120 households by elevating their home foundations by 3 feet and providing training to 130 local farmers on construction and maintenance of flood vegetable bed to ensure both physical shelter and food production remain viable during flooding."
