The Momentum Model
The Momentum model is a comprehensive set of tools and frameworks intended to address the major building blocks of an effective movement. It is a synthesis of best practices from diverse sources including: research from the field of civil resistance, social movement theory, labor and community organizing, organic systems theory, and on-the-ground experimentation within our own community of practice.
