We're a grassroots watchdog network connecting the dots between the world's most powerful people and organizations.
Map the Power is a project to train and support activists and organizers interested in carrying out power research. We aim to build a network of activist-researchers capable of doing strategic, investigative research that strengthens organizing and creative resistance, helping to challenge the most powerful individuals, corporations, and organizations in our society.
This toolkit has been designed to provide people with the tools to conduct power research and develop a research pod, or crew of folks, that have the skills to investigate local corporate bodies and organize against them. You can use this toolkit as a starting point for organizing around a common target with your neighbors and friends, or to strengthen the work of your organization!
