How effective is advocacy as a strategy for advancing inclusive development?
Advocacy is a common strategy for advancing inclusive development, since it is seen as a way to address structural causes of poverty, exclusion and injustice. But how effective is it?
This study consists of a review of the research on advocacy effectiveness in the context of development. Different subtopics can be chosen, focusing, for example, on:
- effectiveness of different actors (e.g. international NGOs, national-level ngos, social movements, coalitions) and strategies
- extent and nature of effects
- explanation of effects.
- a theme
- region
Given the wide array of options, several students can choose this topic.
