Project Resources

Activism Archive

Activism Archive was an archival project documenting case studies of activism and movements of social change in Singapore, celebrating the incredible contribution, diversity and breadth of Singaporean civil society. This project hopes to enhance our appreciation of Singaporean social activism, with a distinct emphasis on documenting and analysing their tactics and strategies: what strategies did they adopt, what worked, why it worked, and what we can learn from each other.

Big Ideas Explained

Much of Singaporean academia remains inaccessible to the public due to jargon or paywalls, thus impacting citizen participation in policy conversations and civic engagement. Big Ideas Explained is an infographic project by CAPE aimed at digesting and repackaging theories, knowledge, and research by our homegrown academics for the Singaporean public.

Parliament Tracker

Parliament Tracker is an ongoing initiative by CAPE to track parliamentary proceedings, crunching data on MP attendance, bills and debates, and Parliamentary Questions fielded. This project aims to inform Singaporeans on parliamentary proceedings and promote access to our political processes.
