This section groups together four advocacy strategies: organizing and coalition building; conducting research; working with the media; and harnessing the power of the Internet. Each of these strategies is about building support for your advocacy agenda. More often than not, one—if not all—of these strategies is used in an advocacy effort, regardless of the forum in which change is pursued.
The links below lead to series of pages describing the strategies, why they are important advocacy tools, when they are best utilized, and how to go about using these strategies in policy campaigns.
