Popular Action Movement
The Popular Action Movement (Movimiento de Acción Popular, MAP) is a political party in many Latin American countries, particularly associated with social justice and grassroots activism. Founded in the mid-20th century, it aims to address issues like poverty, inequality, and democracy. The movement emphasizes the importance of civic engagement and the empowerment of marginalized communities. Though it varies by country, MAP generally advocates for progressive policies, advocating for education, health care, and workers' rights. Its influence has shaped various social movements and political landscapes throughout the region.
