Tactical Mapping is a method of visualizing the institutions and relationships sustaining human rights abuses, and then tracking the nature and potency of tactics available to affect these systems, ultimately serving as a tool to monitor the implementation of strategy.

Tactical mapping can be used to think about:

• What key relationships need to be affected to move your issue and strategy forward?
• What tactics are currently at play or available?
• How do these tactics affect the context, organizations, key relationships, etc., you want to target?
