Which NGOs and organizations appear most often?
An evidence ledger of organizers, coalitions, unions, reporting NGOs and public monitors — with distinct measures for each role.
A frequent citation is not a frequent organizer.
The ranking counts how often an institution publishes sources linked to this atlas. It cannot be read as evidence that the institution financed, organized or directed protests.
Most frequent source publishers in the casebook
Ranked by distinct cases with at least one source, then source links. Automatically computed from the curated case dataset, not from all global demonstrations.

Primary organizer statementNo global NGO-organizer ranking yet
A worldwide organizer frequency requires structured event-level actor records and verification of each role. In the existing cases, many protests are decentralized or have no confirmed NGO organizer. The ranking above is deliberately restricted to source publishers.
Global trends ↗How counts are built
One organization receives one case mention even if cited multiple times in the same case; individual source links remain a separate count. A source may observe a protest without participating. These are casebook frequencies, not an influence score or funding network.
