Neden önemli

Whether a structured checklist increases awareness of mercury risks and helps identify exposure patterns compared to informal observation or no tracking. Proposed validation: Proposed pilot target: At least 70% of participating households complete the checklist for both months. Baseline: No structured tracking. Success measured by checklist return rate and a brief survey on awareness before and after, over 2 months.
