LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

1. Learn about key aspects of successful communicating with<br />

diverse stakeholder groups about N 2000 and biodiversity<br />

protection<br />

2. Define and work out a first outline of a successful<br />

communication action in your community<br />

3. Meet representatives of local media to understand their<br />

expectations and way of working


Opening and Introduction<br />

1. Presentation of participants: Why are you here? What do<br />

you expect from the training for you and for your<br />

organi<strong>sa</strong>tion?<br />

2. Discussion of programme and way of working together


Introduction: What is advocacy?<br />

Working group exercise 1: constructing a definition of<br />

advocacy


Introduction: What is advocacy?<br />

Advocacy refers to organized efforts by citizens to<br />

influence the formulation and implementation of public<br />

policies and programs by persuading and pressuring state<br />

authorities, international financial institutions, and other<br />

powerful actors. (cedpa)<br />

Advocacy is an action directed at changing the policies,<br />

positions or programs of any type of institutions. (Ritu R.<br />

Sharma)


Introduction: What is advocacy?<br />

Advocacy is a tool for citizen participation<br />

It is one of the ways—together with elections, open forums,<br />

special commissions, and so on—that different sectors of<br />

civil society can put forward their agendas and have an<br />

impact on public policies.


Introduction: What is advocacy?<br />

Citizen participation requires:<br />

• Internal democracy<br />

• Human and economic resources<br />

• Consciousness<br />

• Willingness to struggle<br />

• Credibility<br />

• Ability to mobilize people<br />

• Good leaders<br />

• Alliances


Introduction: What is advocacy?<br />

Advocacy as the exercise of power<br />

• To the extent that the citizenry is able to influence<br />

decisions made by entities of the state, it is exercising its<br />

own power as civil society. Advocacy can be seen as the<br />

exercise of power by the citizenry in the face of the<br />

government’s power.


Introduction: What is advocacy?<br />

Why Engage in Advocacy?<br />

There are many reasons to engage in advocacy. The most<br />

important from a civil society perspective are:<br />

(a) to solve specific problems through concrete changes in<br />

public policies and programs;<br />

(b) to strengthen and empower civil society;<br />

(c) to promote and consolidate democracy.


Introduction: What is Advocacy?<br />

Conceptual framework for Advocacy:<br />

It is a dynamic process involving a changing set of actors,<br />

ideas, agendas and politics


Dimensions of Change in Advocacy<br />

STRUCTURAL<br />

CHANGES<br />

• Democratization of<br />

decision-making spaces<br />

• Ways of governing<br />

• Capacity for execution<br />

CULTURAL<br />

CHANGES<br />

• Values<br />

• Behaviors<br />

• Customs<br />

• Empowerment processes<br />

POLITICAL<br />

CHANGES<br />

• Public policies<br />

• Creation and reform of<br />

laws<br />

• Budgets<br />

• Programs


Introduction: What is Advocacy?<br />

Factors within NGOs that increase capacity to do advocacy:<br />

• Internal democracy<br />

• Willingness to interact with the government<br />

• Willingness to build and consolidate alliances<br />

• Long term vision for societal transformation<br />

• A clear mission statement.


Introduction: What is Advocacy?<br />

Advocacy step by step:<br />

1.Identify and analyse the problem<br />

2.Formulate the propo<strong>sa</strong>l: What do we want to achieve?<br />

3.Analyze the decision-making space: how and when, by whom a<br />

decision will be taken in response to our request?<br />

4.Analyze channels of influence: Who are the actors that can influence<br />

the decision-making process?<br />

5.Analyse the strength + weakness of your advocacy team/group: what<br />

are opportunities /threats to the initiative?<br />

6.Design advocacy strategy<br />

7.Develop activity plan:what must be done to carry out the chosen<br />

strategy<br />

8.Carry out continues evaluation: what has been done?


Policy Issue:<br />

Introduction- Identifying Policy Issues<br />

A problem or situation which an institution or organization<br />

could take action to solve


Introduction: Identifying Policy Issues<br />

The policy process is about selecting one policy option from<br />

among several choices, is essentially a negotiation among<br />

various actors.<br />

In order to be included in the negotiation process, data and<br />

research must be translated into information and presented<br />

in formats that policy makers can understand and use.


Introduction: Identifying Policy Issues<br />

The advocacy team has to decide what problem it wishes to<br />

solve. The policy issue should:<br />

1.Relate to the mission of the group<br />

2.Be solvable through changes in public policy<br />

3.Deeply felt by a significant section of the<br />

community/society<br />

4.Motivating for the team/group


Introduction: Identifying Policy Issues<br />

Once the problem to be solved has been identified starts a<br />

deeper analysis of causes and consequences:<br />

1.Why did the problem arise? What are the main causes?<br />

What are its consequences?<br />

2.Prioritization of the causes: which of the causes should be<br />

addressed first? Is there a cause blocking the resolution of<br />

the others?<br />

3.Detailed examination of the prioritized cause: seperating<br />

in different contributing factors


Criteria for<br />

prioritization of a<br />

problem<br />

Deeply felt by a<br />

significant<br />

section of<br />

society<br />

Politically and<br />

technically<br />

feasible to<br />

solve<br />

Motivating for<br />

the group


Introduction: Identifying Policy Issues<br />

Lessons learned from advocacy experiences:<br />

1.Inadequate information is a common obstacle that impedes the analysis<br />

of problems.<br />

2. Confusion between causes and consequences is a constant danger<br />

3. Incomplete examination of a problem can lead a group to concentrate<br />

its efforts on resolving less-important issues<br />

4.In practice, many groups prioritize problems that are of little importance<br />

to the general population. This limits the possibility for mobilizing other<br />

groups in society to act and make it difficult to maintain momentum<br />

5. Another frequent mistake is to analyze a problem without consulting<br />

those groups in society that are most affected by it.


Step 1 –Resource 7<br />

Do not confuse<br />

causes and<br />

consequences<br />

Problems that are<br />

deeply felt tend to<br />

generate special power<br />

Obtain the information<br />

needed to formulate<br />

strategies<br />

LESSONS<br />

LEARNED<br />

Move beyond<br />

generalities<br />

Analyze specific<br />

aspects of the<br />

problem<br />

Get advices from<br />

others to pinpoint<br />

the problem<br />

Involve those who<br />

are affected by the<br />

problem

Global public campaigning<br />

With support of:<br />

COMMUNICATING WITH DIFFERENT<br />

STAKEHOLDERS<br />

Montenegro, 01-03 December 2010


On the last Saturday of<br />

March annually,<br />

households and<br />

businesses should turn<br />

off all<br />

What is Earth Hour<br />

lights for one hour<br />

to raise awareness<br />

towards the need to take<br />

action on climate<br />

change<br />

•1 person/ whole<br />

•Celebrations<br />

on the<br />

family/ business<br />

sector<br />

streets/ concerts<br />

•Debates on TV/ radio/ print/ web on<br />

climate change<br />

•Special<br />

way<br />

of advertising<br />

•Earth Hour symbolizes what we can do<br />

when the world acts together


Background on Earth Hour<br />

- Earth Hour began in one city, in Australia in 2007. More<br />

than 2.2 million households and businesses in Sydney<br />

- One year later, Earth Hour reached 370 cities and towns<br />

in more than 35 countries across 18 time zones - an<br />

estimated 50 to 100 million people around the world<br />

switched off their lights for Earth Hour in 2008<br />

-In its third year Earth Hour 2009 created history as the<br />

greatest voluntary action ever witnessed - 88 countries,<br />

4159 cities, more than 80 million people<br />

- In 2010 more than half billion people in more than 4500<br />

cities and towns in 128 countries turned off their lights for<br />

Earth Hour.


What you get from Earth Hour<br />

<br />

<br />

Visibility<br />

New contacts<br />

in public<br />

and business<br />

sector<br />

Your campaign - Earth Hour is the platform to push local<br />

mes<strong>sa</strong>ges for environmental communications<br />

Opportunity<br />

to be<br />

part of global movement


Issues to be communicated<br />

The biggest threat to life on earth is climate change<br />

A way in which global warming can be slowed down is if<br />

individuals make small changes to the way they live<br />

To make a change we have to show how easy it can be<br />

for individuals

In 2008 the<br />

Success story - Portugal<br />

Portuguese<br />

were<br />

unaware<br />

of Earth<br />

Hour<br />

In 2009 first Earth Hour – 5 months of preparations; more<br />

than 500,000 persons switched off lights in their houses; 11<br />

cities involved leaded by Lisbon; 20 companies committed<br />

with EH mes<strong>sa</strong>ge; The social networks were a good means<br />

of spreading the EH mes<strong>sa</strong>ge; 4 media partners<br />

In 2010 second Earth Hour – 3 months of preparations;<br />

more than 1,000.000 people involved; 27 cities involved<br />

with the help of ANMP (biggest success in Porto – 54<br />

main billboards in each participating city.<br />

Constant communication was maintained with relevant media, including<br />

interviews, guest appearances and feature stories,<br />

press releases, etc.


A special website was created<br />

in local language, giving in<br />

particular some tips on how to<br />

<strong>sa</strong>ve energy tips.<br />

The Facebook profile for Earth hour<br />

in BiH had 4,894 followers daily<br />

during the campaign and<br />

discussions continue to this day.<br />

Among the successful actions:<br />

- involvement of many local NGOs, covering the whole<br />

territory<br />

- media work<br />

- visits to schools<br />

- the best response was in towns Biograd and Makarska (which<br />

was joined by the neighbouring municipalities along the sea coast<br />

– all in all, more than 27,000 inhabitants), where the complete<br />

street lights were switched off.<br />

- the <strong>sa</strong>me happened in Višnjan (whose mayor, interested in<br />

<strong>sa</strong>vings on the power bill, asked why not extend the action for a<br />

whole night or more)


And more …<br />

- The city of Šibenik joined in spontaneously, by turning lights off at their famous<br />

cathedral of St. Jacob.<br />

- In Zagreb, the lights were switched off in the Tkalčićeva street, The Regent<br />

Esplanade hotel also turned off the lights on the outside of the building.<br />

- In some places the organi<strong>sa</strong>tions managed to have landmark buildings in the dark<br />

despite the non-cooperation of the city authorities (the Zadar bridge was dark from<br />

20:30 to 21:30).<br />

- In Osijek the city authorities agreed to turn off lights on the pedestrian bridge over<br />

the Drava river.<br />

IDEA<br />

2010 BRAND AMBASSADOR<br />

NIKOLA TESLA<br />

(10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was an Serbian inventor and a mechanical<br />

and electrical engineer. He was one of the most important contributors to the<br />

birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for his many revolutionary<br />

developments in the field of electromagnetism in the late 19th and early 20th<br />

centuries. Tesla's patents and theoretical work formed the basis of modern<br />

alternating current (AC) electric power systems, including the polyphase<br />

system of electrical distribution and the AC motor, with which he helped usher<br />

in the Second Industrial Revolution.

o Natura 2000 is a European initiative requiring exchange of experiences<br />

and networking<br />

o It can help create new opportunities and partnerships for rural areas<br />

o Much of Natura 2000 will be on private land<br />

o It Increases people’s possibilities to enjoy their natural heritage<br />

interviews, surveys, observations<br />

TECHNIQUES for communicating on nature conservation<br />

one-way flow of information from you to your<br />

audience – MOST COMMON<br />

two-way flow of information between you and<br />

your audience – ESSENTIAL FOR<br />

MANAGEMENT PLANS<br />

Both can be delivered directly (through<br />

brochures, bilateral meetings etc) or<br />

indirectly (via the media, a third party or<br />

an intermediary such as a school or<br />

association<br />

Session 4: Biodiversity protection and N2000 - how to talk to<br />

different stakeholders<br />

Common communications problems and their solutions<br />

Too much jargon<br />

Wrong choice of<br />

communications<br />

Strong focus on<br />

rare species and<br />

plants<br />

Use language that everyone can understand<br />

and keep the information simple<br />

Have in mind whom you want to communicate<br />

with and what you want them to understand or<br />

do. Keep repeating the mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Link the fact that habitats harbouring rare<br />

species also harbour many other natural<br />

features more familiar to people. Their<br />

nature is also an important part of the network<br />

because it hosts some of Europe’s most<br />

threatened species and habitats”<br />

Session 4: Biodiversity protection and N2000 - how to talk to<br />

different stakeholders<br />

Perceptions and attitudes towards Natura 2000<br />

It is crucial to understand how people view on Natura 2000 with:<br />

• hostility – conservation and Natura 2000 are seen as a clear<br />

threat to their livelihood<br />

• fear and suspicion – concerned that it could result in restrictions<br />

or interference in local activities<br />

• benign indifference – not concerned one way or another (often<br />

the most common reaction )<br />

• approval – generally content with the designation<br />

• proud – proud that the site has been recognised internationally<br />

Session 4: Biodiversity protection and N2000 - how to talk to<br />

different stakeholders<br />

Communicating with stakeholders<br />

The key to success when communicating with stakeholders is to ensure<br />

that they are correctly informed about the purpose of Natura 2000<br />

designation and its practical implications and, to associate them with<br />

decisions over the management of these areas. This can only be<br />

achieved if there is mutual trust and understanding between the<br />

different parties involved.<br />

Session 4: Biodiversity protection and N2000 - how to talk to<br />

different stakeholders<br />

Communicating with other public bodies<br />

It should be straightforward since Natura 2000 is a government policy<br />

enshrined in strong legislation. In practice, the situation may be more complex<br />

CASE STUDY<br />

The communication efforts need to focus first on raising<br />

awareness of Natura 2000 through interservice<br />

meetings and/or targeted information dissemination<br />

Session 4: Biodiversity protection and N2000 - how to talk to<br />

Communicating with the general public<br />

The key to success is to find ways of making nature<br />

SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Exercise 1 : we got green light….


SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

What is a mes<strong>sa</strong>ge?<br />

A mes<strong>sa</strong>ge is a concise and persuasive statement<br />

about your advocacy goal that captures what you want to<br />

achieve, why and how.<br />

Since the underlying purpose of a mes<strong>sa</strong>ge is to create<br />

action, your mes<strong>sa</strong>ge should also include the specific<br />

action you would like the audience to take.


SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Five Key Elements of Mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

1.Content/Ideas: What ideas do you want to convey? What<br />

arguments will you use to persuade your audience?<br />

2.Language: What words will you choose to get your mes<strong>sa</strong>ge<br />

across clearly and effectively? Are there words you should or should<br />

not use?<br />

3. Source/Messenger: Who will the audience respond to and find<br />

credible?


SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Five Key Elements of Mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

4.Format: Which way(s) will you deliver your mes<strong>sa</strong>ge for maximum<br />

impact? e.g., a meeting, letter, brochure, or radio ad?<br />

5.Time and Place: When is the best time to deliver the mes<strong>sa</strong>ge?<br />

Is there a place to deliver your mes<strong>sa</strong>ge that will enhance<br />

its credibility or give it more political impact?


SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Elements of Mes<strong>sa</strong>ge Content<br />

1.What you want to achieve;<br />

2.Why you want to achieve it (the positive result of taking<br />

action and/or the negative consequence of inaction)<br />

3.How you propose to achieve it<br />

4.What action you want the audience to take.


SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Exercise 2 : Analyse the letter to Mr. Maker


SESSION 1: Developing and delivering<br />

policy mes<strong>sa</strong>ges<br />

Three . Tips for Mes<strong>sa</strong>ge Development and Delivery<br />

1. Deliver a consistent mes<strong>sa</strong>ge to an audience through a<br />

variety of channels over an extended period of time<br />

2. Make sure that your mes<strong>sa</strong>ge is being delivered by a<br />

source that the audience finds credible.<br />

3. Create a mes<strong>sa</strong>ge that the audience will understand

SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

Advocates constantly build networks among people and<br />

sometimes coalitions among organizations in order to<br />

bring about change.<br />

Often you can do together what no one can do alone.<br />

Networks and coalitions take time and energy to develop<br />

and maintain because they involve building relationships of<br />

trust with other people.<br />

Many advocates find this aspect of their work to be both<br />

the most difficult as well as the most rewarding<br />

professionally and personally


SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• Why do organi<strong>sa</strong>tions come together?<br />

• common or mutually beneficial goals<br />

• Higher input/output ratio<br />

• Overcome uncertainty through risk sharing<br />

• Enhancing reputation&prestige of members<br />

• obligation through regulation or law<br />

• Share experiences, learn and avoid<br />

duplication


SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• Networks are the loosest form of collaboration.The primary<br />

function is information sharing<br />

• Alliances take collaboration a stage further. Participants<br />

sychronise their efforts and resources<br />

• Partnership is a cross-sector collaboration in which<br />

organi<strong>sa</strong>tions work together in a transparent, equitable and<br />

mutually beneficial way


SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• Formal network: interrelated group of several independent<br />

institutions/organi<strong>sa</strong>tions established for a specific need.<br />

Members have common activities, meet regulary and have<br />

often legal arrangements. They share a goal of achieving<br />

specific changes.


• What makes a good partner?<br />

SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• Are you a good partner? What could you make better?


SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• wants the partnership to succeed<br />

• seeks win-win solutions<br />

• is open and clear about their own goals<br />

• listens well and responds to other views<br />

• is prepared to trust<br />

• has integrity and acts consistently<br />

• effectively carries out their tasks and responsibilities<br />

• respects others and their contributions<br />

• is not prepared to sweep difficulties under the carpet<br />

• can be flexible but retains focus<br />

• understands how partners depend on one another<br />

• leads their colleagues in support of collaboration<br />

What makes a good<br />

partner?<br />

ARE YOU A GOOD<br />

PARTNER??<br />

Characteristics of networks<br />

SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

1. Culture of “giving and receiving”. Members are providers<br />

and receivers of services to/from other network members<br />

1. Decentrali<strong>sa</strong>tion: networks can be global, regional, national<br />

or local<br />

2. Networks are dynamic and complex. Members influence<br />

management and focus.


SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

To network or not to network- Risks<br />

• The issue becomes more important and may lead the<br />

members to neglect other tasks<br />

• Alliance may only be as strong as it weakest link, and this<br />

inbalance may creat tensions<br />

• Organi<strong>sa</strong>tion may have different views on the appropriate<br />

tactics to be used<br />

• Conflict concerning access and sharing of resources<br />

• Organi<strong>sa</strong>tions providing a lot of resources may get<br />

frustrated with other members shortcomings


Strong foundations<br />

SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• The strongest foundation for joint working will be the developpment of a<br />

shared understanding of the problem and a clear idea what you want to<br />

do together<br />

• Potential partners should analyse their own strengths and weakness, in<br />

relation to both the issue and inter-organi<strong>sa</strong>tional working.<br />

• Identifying shared capacities as well as gaps early in the process can<br />

avoid missunderstandings and wrong expectations


SESSION 3: Building Coalitions<br />

• After having defined your goals (WHAT) and the needed<br />

actions (HOW) we need to define the way the network will<br />

work together as a group of organi<strong>sa</strong>tions. We need:<br />

• Guiding principales: how the group will work together based<br />

on shared values and objectives<br />

• Common strategy: what we need to do to make the<br />

organi<strong>sa</strong>tions work as a network

• 1. What Is a Strategy?<br />

SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

• A strategy is a set of activities directed toward the accomplishment of a<br />

concrete objective.<br />

• In the case of advocacy efforts, the objective is to convince or persuade<br />

the decision-maker targeted by the campaign to approve the propo<strong>sa</strong>l.<br />

• The strategies and activities of an advocacy campaign should be as<br />

varied and creative as possible.<br />

• The choice of advocacy strategies should also be based on the<br />

interests and motivations of the decision-maker and other key actors


Persuade the<br />

decision-maker<br />

to approve the<br />

propo<strong>sa</strong>l?<br />

Convince<br />

people<br />

who are<br />

undecided<br />

to be<br />

supportive<br />

?<br />

CRITERIA FOR<br />

ADVOCACY<br />

STRATEGIES<br />

To what extent<br />

do they….<br />

Neutralize<br />

opponents?<br />

Motivate allies to<br />

take action?


SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

2. Types of Advocacy Strategies<br />

Many different kinds of activities need to be carried out to try to<br />

influence the decision-making space and get a public policy propo<strong>sa</strong>l<br />

approved. These activities fall into five principal categories


Lobbying<br />

Press Work<br />

ADVOCACY<br />

STRATEGIES<br />

Education and<br />

sensitivity-raising<br />

Organizing<br />

support<br />

Mobilization


Lobbying<br />

SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy<br />

and communication<br />

Lobbying is a face-to-face effort to persuade the person with decision-<br />

making power to favour the propo<strong>sa</strong>l, to motivate allies to take concrete<br />

action in support of the initiative, to convince undecided persons, and to<br />

neutralize opponents. Normally it involves direct visits.<br />

• Lobbying allows organizers to fine-tune the power map and evaluate the<br />

impact that the initiative’s arguments and activities have on key actors.<br />

Lobbying can open up possibilities for negotiation.


Organizing support<br />

SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

• Organizational work serves to broaden and strengthen the group of<br />

people who will participate in an advocacy initiative, and builds an<br />

internal structure for the campaign that is responsive to the needs of the<br />

initiative.<br />

• Organizing should also serve to motivate and involve the population that<br />

is affected by the problem the group is seeking to address. If this does<br />

not happen, the advocacy campaign will have little credibility, little social<br />

power, and little probability of being successful.


Education<br />

SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

• The group or coalition needs to educate the public and the decision-<br />

maker about the problem that it seeks to solve and the solution it is<br />

proposing.<br />

• This strategy can be applied in many different ways, but its immediate<br />

objective is almost always to convince people to take concrete actions<br />

in support of the initiative by informing them and by raising their<br />

sensitivity to the problem


Press work<br />

SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

Press work is closely related to education and sensitivity-raising efforts.<br />

In an advocacy initiative, a press strategy is critical because of the<br />

important role that public opinion plays in efforts to persuade<br />

government officials to change public policies or programs.<br />

The objective of a press strategy is to place the topic of the advocacy<br />

initiative on the public agenda, to gain credibility for the group or<br />

coalition as a source of information about the issue, and to shape public<br />

opinion in favour of the propo<strong>sa</strong>l.


Mobilization<br />

SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

The mobilization of social power, especially mobilization of the<br />

population affected by the problem that the group or coalition seeks to<br />

solve, is neces<strong>sa</strong>ry to get the attention of the press, generate political<br />

will on the part of government representatives, and open spaces for<br />

lobbying and negotiation.


SESSION 6: Advocacy Strategy and<br />

communication<br />

Summary - Advocacy step by step:<br />

1. Identify and analyse the problem<br />

2. Formulate the propo<strong>sa</strong>l: What do we want to achieve?<br />

3. Analyze the decision-making space: how and when, by whom a<br />

decision will be taken in response to our request?<br />

4. Analyze channels of influence: Who are the actors that can influence<br />

the decision-making process?<br />

5. Analyse the strength + weakness of your advocacy team/group: what<br />

are opportunities /threats to the initiative?<br />

6. Design advocacy strategy<br />

7. Develop activity plan:what must be done to carry out the chosen<br />

strategy<br />

8. Carry out continues evaluation: what has been done?
