To make change happen, the first thing you need to ask is: who holds the power? This is because, at the end of the day knowing who is able to enact the change you want to see so that you can focus on reaching and influencing them really does matter.
Power mapping is essential for anyone wanting to create lasting change. Over the past decade, we have been helping changemakers map out where power and influence is held and who they need to target in order to make change happen.
The power analysis matrix is a simple but effective tool that can be used to see who the key actors are and what influences them. You can then use that knowledge to frame your agenda and plan your tactics in order to create maximum impact.
