With 2020 an important juncture for global alcohol policy, a strong, mobilised, coherent and coordinated civil society will contribute to effectively advocating for policy change globally and in countries. This half-day NCD Advocacy Institute workshop will strengthen the knowledge and skills of participants to engage in effective advocacy drawing on insights from across NCD prevention and control.
The workshop will provide tips for campaign planning & strategising; will share examples and lessons learned from across the NCD movement - particularly those relevant from advocacy on other NCD risk factors in different countries; and will help prime action at country level with activities including strategic stakeholder and opportunity mapping, identification of advocacy targets and objectives, skills to communicate with decision makers, and tools to hold governments to account for commitments, as well as to recognise and manage interests at odds with public health objectives.
The workshop will also provide participants with resources and tools to support advocacy for stronger alcohol control policies and implementation of WHO’s SAFER technical package for alcohol control.
More details to follow.
