Verra SDVM001 SD Vista Methodology for Time Savings from Improved Cookstoves #3706

Open prernaadev01 opened 5 months ago

prernaadev01 commented 5 months ago

Problem description

This methodology addresses the persistent reliance on inefficient cooking methods in millions of households worldwide, such as open fires and basic charcoal stoves, which demand considerable time and effort for fuel collection and cooking. By introducing improved cookstoves (ICS) or retrofitting existing installations, this approach quantifies two key time savings: the hours spent gathering fuel and the time dedicated to cooking. These savings particularly benefit women and girls, who often shoulder the burden of fuel collection and cooking tasks. Moreover, while this methodology focuses on time savings, it also highlights additional unquantified benefits, including improved health outcomes by reducing physical strain and exposure to harmful smoke. During the webinar, we will cover details about the SD VISta methodology and offer a demonstration of this policy as featured in the Guardian. Additionally, this methodology will be designed and digitized to create digital assets quantifying time-saving benefits for improved cookstove projects.

Requirements

  1. Creating Schema design for this methodology.
  2. Development of the schema and policy.
  3. Testing the policy development through Guardian UI and configurator.

Definition of done

  1. Policy is designed and developed and approved after testing.
  2. Policy file is added in Github repo.
  3. Policy is documented with complete detailed Step By Step process.
  4. IPFS timestamp is created for Policy file.

Acceptance criteria

Methodology is completed with detailed testing and approvals.

@prernaadev01 can you please double check the methodologies prioritization list with @JailineM? I think we may need to update slightly

@dubgeis I have checked with Jailine and removed this from the roadmap and google sheet. Thanks
