The document describes tools from the Center for Victims of Torture called the Tactical Map and Spectrum of Allies for identifying relationships, allies, and opponents relevant to a human rights problem and developing strategies. The Spectrum of Allies tool involves plotting individuals, groups, and institutions on a spectrum from active supporters to active opponents based on their stance towards the goal of ending child marriages in Yemen, using the example of Nujood Ali. The tools are intended to help understand the terrain and key players in order to plan effective tactics. Participants are assigned to use these tools to analyze relationships relevant to their identified problem prior to the next session.
