Advocacy Tip 1 — Selecting an issue
Criteria for selecting a particular issue might include the following:
- Will a solution to this problem or issue result in a real improvement in people’s lives?
- Is this an issue or problem we think we can resolve?
- Is this an issue or problem which is fairly easily understood?
- Can we tackle this issue or problem with the resources available to us?
- Is this an issue that will attract support or divide us?
