Explore Our Work
We conduct research across multiple interconnected projects to understand and support environmental activism, track campaign outcomes, and hold power to account.
Campaign Outcomes Dashboard
An interactive dashboard tracking the outcomes of environmental campaigns across Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands. This tool helps researchers and activists understand which campaign strategies are most effective, measuring success rates across different regions, issues, and tactics. Access comprehensive data visualisations and explore patterns in campaign outcomes to inform future activism.

Climate Justice
Our climate justice project examines the intersection of environmental protection and social equity. We research how climate change disproportionately affects marginalised communities and track grassroots movements fighting for just climate solutions. This project documents community-led climate action, investigates environmental racism, and highlights the voices of those on the frontlines of climate change.

Effective Climate Justice Conversations

This project distils practitioner interviews, academic evidence, and ten Australian campaign case studies into practical, actionable guidance, from conversation models like the 4Cs and LEAP, to choosing the right format, motivating volunteers, and evaluating impact. A resource for anyone wanting to have better conversations, and for those seeking the research behind them.

Measuring Protest Criminalisation
An empirical look at how peaceful environmental protest has been criminalised in Australia from the 1960s to now, across rhetoric, law, policing and surveillance. This project maps hundreds of records of arrests, legislation and surveillance, tracks the patterns over time, and examines through detailed case studies what our transparency mechanisms can, and cannot, reveal about the decisions behind them.

Stewardship Research
Stewardship Research investigates corporate environmental accountability and shareholder activism. This project tracks how investors and shareholders use their influence to push companies toward sustainable practices. We monitor shareholder resolutions, proxy voting patterns, and engagement strategies that drive corporate climate action, providing crucial insights into the role of finance in environmental stewardship.

Influence Tracker
The Influence Tracker project maps political influence and lobbying activities around environmental policy. We follow the money trails, document corporate lobbying efforts, and expose conflicts of interest that undermine climate action. This transparency tool helps activists, journalists, and policymakers understand who is shaping environmental policy and whose interests are being served.
