Action Guide for Advocacy and Citizen Participation

Publication date: Tuesday 24 January 2006

This new field manual provides a well tested approach for promoting citizen participation. It breaks down the traditional boxes separating human rights, rule of law, development, and governance, and reconnects them in order to create an integrated approach to rights-based political empowerment.

A New Weave of Power, People & Politics combines concrete and practical action "steps" with a sound theoretical foundation to help users understand the process of advocacy planning and implementation.
