how the field thinks

strategies in this slice

Theories of action extracted from the orgs in this slice. The count is how many orgs cite each one — a strategy run by many orgs in common is a through-line; one cited by a single org is still surfaced so the reader can gauge the full spread.

where strategy meets practice

where the field connects

strategy-sharing network

Inferred from shared theories of action: each line connects an org to a strategy it runs. Organizations that share many strategies cluster through the same nodes — funders can spot the field's structural bridges.

scale of the field

rollup metrics

Aggregated scale claims from orgs in the slice. Treat as a floor, not a ceiling — many orgs don't publish these numbers, so totals underrepresent real reach. Extreme outliers (often unit-mismatches upstream) are filtered out.
