SWOT analysis

A SWOT analysis is an exercise which can help identify strategies for your campaign. 

It looks at your organisation's  or community's internal Strengths and Weaknesses, external Opportunities and Threats.  This helps you to see what positive aspects you can build on and potential problems you need to deal with.
