The Methodology Lab

SHADOW — v3 in validation. Does not affect published scores or $SHE supply mechanics.

The SHE Score ships conservatively: every pillar must meet the published data standard — an independent institutional source covering at least 80% of scored countries, published within two years — before it can affect official scores. The Lab is where v3 candidate pillars are shadow-scored in the open until they qualify.

v3 expansion pillars in validation: Bodily Autonomy, Dignity & Welfare, Digital & Social, and the expanded Safety & Justice indicators. Read the methodology.
