Lobby and advocacy


NGOs, local organizations, (international) networks, civic associations, etc. often try to defend an idea or cause actively and put it on the agenda: through campaigns, studies, activism, etc. They are seeking to influence opinions, attitudes and behaviours of decision makers so that their decisions can contribute to better conditions for development.
