Subtle Persuasion: Changing the World of Public Health through Advocacy

Advocacy is the effort to change public perception and influence policy decisions and funding priorities. Advocates raise awareness about issues and propose specific solutions among different audiences, including policy-makers, experts, the media, and affected communities. Advocacy involves making a case in favor of a particular issue, using skillful persuasion and strategic action. Simply put, advocacy means actively supporting a cause and strategically working with others to support it as well.
