Since December 2009, CIS has been coordinating and nurturing the Maps for Making Change project, organised in collaboration with Tactical Tech. During the past four months, participants have been on a challenging yet fertile and inspiring journey that is now slowly coming to an end. Would you like to know more about what has happened in the time that has passed? The Maps for Making Change wiki is a good place to start.

Since December 2009, CIS has been coordinating and nurturing the Maps for Making Change project, organised in collaboration with Tactical Tech. Maps for Making Change provides a select group of activists and supporters of movements and campaigns for progressive social change in India with an opportunity to collectively debate ànd explore in practice the potential of digital mapping as a tool to support their work.

Over the months, the projects wiki has turned into a rich resource that reflects the challenging yet fertile and inspiring journey participants have made in the course of this project. The wiki contains detailed information about the project and individual participants projects-within-the-project, as well as resource persons profiles, workshop schedules and links to facilitators presentations. In a separate section, there are links to a range of resources on mapping for social change more generally – including how to guides, inspiring examples and mapping tools that are available for free.

If you would like to know more about what has happened in Maps for Making Change over the past four months, do therefore go and have a look – the link to the wiki is:
