A good piece of ‘backgrounder’ curation with lots of links. The headline is too cryptic, however — think about the generic conventions of how backgrounders are generally headlined (especially online). For example “Backgrounder: …” or “What you need to know about…”

Try also to use some of the web writing techniques outlined in the module around spitting paragraphs more ruthlessly for brevity, adding subheading for scannability etc. But good embedding here.
