In order to fulfill Advocacy Center’s goal, following activities are going to be implemented:

• Design and development of an Advocacy Guide

The advocacy guide will offer a content which will be reader friendly and will be consisted of:

• Importance of the advocacy in the process of policy creation and decision making
• Set of tools and opportunities for advocacy
• Methodology for development and implementation of advocacy campaigns through examples of successful campaigns (domestic and international).

• Design and development of a module for Advocacy

The developed module at first will be used for training of trainers and afterwards it will be a useful tool for the trainers who will be trained to deliver the advocacy trainings.

• Training of trainers in the field of Advocacy and Public relations

The trainings will be aimed towards the ones that are professional and fully skilled in this area, but only through their on-hands experience within the civil society. This would enable a creation of a poll of trainers (local/national level) which will later on have the capacity to deliver trainings in this area.

Besides the above mentioned specific activities that are planned in the project, during it`s functioning the Advocacy Center will provide the following services to the stakeholders:

• Delivering trainings, tools and know how in the area of Advocacy
• Delivering one on one consultancy and in house mentoring
• Campaign development and tips for its successful implementation (from A – Z)
• Monitoring of the on going advocacy campaigns on national and local level
• Web-portal with an overview of the dynamics of the implementation of the campaigns on national and local level
• Promotion of the success stories in the field of advocacy in the public.

The Advocacy Center is designed to serve and increase the capacities of the Civil Society Organizations. Moreover, all other interest groups that are undertaking the lobbying activities or are willing to conduct one, are also part of the target groups.
