Mechanisms

• Counterfactual Welfare Comparison
  • Attribute per party under each scenario. The intervention's effect on a group is its outcome under the proposal minus its outcome under a given baseline — the additionality move.

    This sourceDefines project additionality by comparing project outcomes with a baseline representing what would have happened without the intervention.

• Shadow Displacement Accounting
  • The discipline it rests on is additionality: crediting the entrant only for activity that genuinely wouldn't have occurred otherwise.

    This sourceDefines additionality as recognizing reductions only for activities that would not otherwise have occurred.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
