CASE 01
Evidence is not yet admissible
A proposed consequence is supported by an observation, but the source attribution or record continuity is missing. What should happen before execution? Consider this in the context of air-quality intervention.
TA14 AUTHORITY GOVERNANCE INSTITUTION · INDEPENDENT TECHNICAL PRE-EXAMINATION
From atmospheric observation to defensible evidence, locally established authority, bounded intervention, and verified outcome.
INDEPENDENT · PRE-EXAMINATION · BASELINE NOT FROZEN · NO FORMAL DISPOSITION. All readings, intervention scenarios, people, institutions, and outcomes depicted in teaching visuals are illustrative. No endorsement or participation by Malawi authorities, Clean Air One Atmosphere, OpenAQ, EPIC, or the University of Chicago is implied.

ILLUSTRATIVE PRACTITIONER PRESSURE TEST
Hypothetical scenario: a district team proposes a bounded school air-quality intervention after reported PM2.5 concerns. No actual Malawi measurement, authorization, or government decision is represented.
Check only what the hypothetical record actually establishes. All four start unestablished.
Choose an option to see what its justification would require. Selection does not authorize action.
Independent educational simulation only. These checkboxes do not verify real-world facts, and no choice grants legal or institutional permission to act.
TA-14 ACADEMY · INDEPENDENT REVIEW CHALLENGE
Apply the governance principles to three hypothetical cases relevant to air-quality intervention. Choose a determination, then examine the reasoning. These cases teach the distinction between Admissible Evidence, Applicable Authority, and Established Standing; they do not issue real-world authorization.
CASE 01
A proposed consequence is supported by an observation, but the source attribution or record continuity is missing. What should happen before execution? Consider this in the context of air-quality intervention.
CASE 02
The record is current and reliable, but the proposed consequence falls outside the scope of applicable authority. What is the supported determination?
CASE 03
The proposed consequence triggers a documented requirement for review by another designated authority. What is the appropriate route?
Independent educational examples only. The questions are hypothetical and do not assess a real institution, building, person, or operating system. Actual governance determinations require case-specific evidence, applicable authority, established standing, and bounded review.
