Thank you for the email. You may look at the deprivation approach. It shifts the focus away from the level of resources (income) available and onto the outcomes in terms of the acceptability of the living standards achieved.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
