Advocacy

Advocacy is an activity by an individual or group that aims to influence decisions within political, economic and social institutions. Advocacy includes activities to influence public policy, laws and budgets by using facts, relationships and messaging to inform elected and government officials and the public.

An advocate is an individual who publicly supports or recommends a particular cause or policy.
