Assessing living conditions for families that live in subdivided flats requires a comprehensive evaluation of various aspects. Here are five key points to consider when assessing living conditions in such circumstances:

Space and overcrowding: Measure the available living space and assess the level of overcrowding. Consider factors such as the total floor area, number of rooms, and number of occupants sharing the space. Evaluate whether the living conditions meet minimum space requirements for adequate living standards.

Sanitation and hygiene: Evaluate the availability and cleanliness of sanitation facilities, including toilets, bathing areas, and kitchens. Assess the access to clean water, proper plumbing, ventilation, and waste management systems. Consider the overall cleanliness and hygiene practices within the living environment.

Safety and structural integrity: Inspect the safety and structural integrity of the subdivided flats. Assess the condition of walls, ceilings, floors, and electrical wiring to identify any potential hazards or safety risks. Evaluate the presence of fire safety measures such as smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and accessible evacuation routes.

Ventilation and natural light: Assess the level of ventilation and natural light within the living spaces. Evaluate the availability of windows, air circulation, and natural lighting to ensure adequate airflow and minimize the risk of poor indoor air quality and related health issues.

Access to basic amenities: Evaluate the accessibility of basic amenities necessary for daily living. Consider factors such as access to clean drinking water, electricity, heating or cooling systems, and kitchen facilities. Assess the availability and proximity of essential services such as schools, healthcare facilities, public transportation, and community resources.

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?
