Who runs this
LOAM is operated by Comms for a Cause Labs in India, and built by Suman Saurav. Contact Team LOAM at team@projectloam.org.
How the atlas is put together
LOAM collects only public material that funders publish themselves, their websites, strategies, reports, articles, newsletters and their organisations' own public social media posts, including the text on images and carousel slides. Videos, individuals' personal accounts, and anything confidential, leaked or privately shared are excluded. Every publication links back to its original source with its date.
Automated reading, and its limits
Collecting, parsing and analysing this material is automated. Software reads each publication, extracts text from images, names the themes it carries, places moments on the 2026 calendar, works out which themes are rising or going quiet, and drafts the Monday briefs. Every theme, moment and brief point must be backed by a quote that appears word for word in the funder's own publication, or it is dropped.
Even so, automated reading can make mistakes, a theme can be misnamed, a post can be filed under the wrong funder, a trend can reflect how much was published rather than a real shift. I try to have a human look over everything, but with one person and a daily stream that is not always possible. Treat LOAM as a starting point, open the source before you rely on anything, and please tell me when something is wrong.
Corrections
Quotations are used for information and comment, with attribution to the source. If you represent a funder and something is wrong, misattributed or out of date, write to team@projectloam.org and it will be corrected promptly.
No affiliation, no endorsement
Funder names appear as descriptions of what they have publicly said. No funder listed sponsors, endorses or reviews LOAM, and LOAM does not speak for any of them. Nothing here predicts whether a funder will support you.
No advice
LOAM offers no legal, financial, tax or fundraising advice and no guarantee of results. The judgement stays with you. See terms of use.
Money
LOAM is free, takes no commission, carries no advertising and has no commercial relationship with any funder. Voluntary support pays for my time and running costs, and buys no influence over what appears in the atlas.
Open source and licence
The code is published under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (AGPL-3.0-or-later). Anyone may study, change and share it; anyone who distributes a changed version, or runs one as a service, must publish their source under the same licence. Forks must credit LOAM and its author and must not use the LOAM name as their own.
Accessibility
LOAM aims to be usable by keyboard and screen reader, with adjustable text size and respect for reduced-motion settings. If something gets in your way, please say so; it will be treated as a bug.
