| Hi Everyone,
I am looking for a guide that provides some advice to young people on how they might go about undertaking advocacy on a particular issue they are passionate about. Including what 'advocacy' is, what kinds of activities they might do to bring attention to the issue, how they might go about engaging other young people, how they could go about approaching government etc.
While there is a lot of literature and resources on youth participation, particularly from the perspective of how mainstream (and youth focused) organisations might go about engaging young people in their work, I have not been able to find anything that is targeted at young people who want to get out and do their own advocacy independent of existing organisations.
If anyone knows of any resources, I would be very grateful if you could let me know.
Thank-you very much.
Kind Regards,
