• Consultation with member organizations. When an advocacy action or campaign is going to be undertaken, the core group or coalition needs to have a unified position. Thus, it is very important to consult with as extensive a group as possible about both the proposal and the advocacy plan. • Fundraising. Another key aspect in developing an advocacy plan has to do with finances. What resources are available, and how much can the project spend? What staff is available (and if this is remunerated staff, how much will they be paid)? What are the costs of technical studies (if they are required), advisers, printing and photocopying, web costs (deign and maintenance), office equipment and travel (transportation, lodging if necessary, food, etc.)? If fundraising is not taken seriously from the very beginning, a lack of resources can become a limiting factor leading to the failure of a good advocacy plan. Therefore, if an action or campaign is to be undertaken, a good financial strategy needs to be defined right from the start, which considers the resources available to the core group, and in what way additional resources will be obtained (the group’s own efforts, domestic or international donor agencies, or other sources). • Preparation of the technical proposal. There are times when a proposal needs to be supported by technical information. In such cases, the advocacy proposal should be accompanied by a technical proposal. For example, if accessible transport is the demand, it would be important to have clear information about the costs of new or used accessible buses, the cost of adapting bus platforms or ramps, etc. Similarly, in the case of actions aimed at reforming or approving laws, the core organizing group should prepare a draft of the law or reform for which it is seeking approval. 2) Concrete activities to influence the decision-making space The strategies identified in the previous step are general courses of action that the core group intends to pursue during its advocacy campaign. Now, in developing the campaign plan, specific activities must be proposed that will be carried out as part of each selected strategy. This can include the following: 84
Strategy Activities Lobbying • Direct visit with the decision-maker and other key actors. Organizing and including the affected population • Assemblies • Meetings • Leadership workshops • House-to-house visits • Training • Institutional strengthening • Formation of coalitions • Formation of work commissions • Coordination meetings Education and sensitivity-raising • Research • Forums • Workshops • Seminars • Publications • Videos • Popular theater • Home visits • Artistic festivals • Civic education campaigns Press work • Press conferences • Interviews • Paid ads • Visits to editorial boards • Articles • Letters to the editor • Investigative reporting • Events to cultivate relationships with journalists (breakfasts, cocktails, etc.) Mobilization • Marches • Take-overs • Vigils • Sit-ins • Strikes Once the specific activities have been selected and the group figures out the order in which they are best carried out, the plan should be prepared in writing. 85
