How we measure
Counted on foot, checked from outside.
- 01
House by house
A home counts when its lamps are still working at the spring visit, not on the day we fit them.
- 02
By the village, not by us
Each village committee signs the count. We publish the ones they dispute.
- 03
Checked from outside
An independent auditor visits one valley every year and picks the villages herself.
