Thinking of the case studies, or your own advocacy experience, how do we decide whether our advocacy work has been successful? How do we evaluate it? ? How can we use the information we collect from monitoring and evaluation? Facilitators’ notes ! Make sure that participants refer back to their objective(s). !
