Advocacy Campaigning

Advocacy originates from the word advocare, ‘call to one's aid’ or to speak out on behalf of someone. It is one of the most powerful ways in which mission-driven organizations can create large-scale social change. When advocacy is successful, there can be far greater impact than through direct service delivery. Advocacy work can be “large scale”, advocating for governments to change policies, or “smaller scale”, advocating for community members to change behavior.
