| In 2009 the Ethiopian government has tightened it's grip on organisations who work with advocacy |
-
How is advocacy carried out in Ethiopia?
-
How to focus on and address important issues in a society to obtain the best results?
-
Should the partners in civil society address their own specific issue and obtain small, but concrete, results?
-
- Or should the partners together address big general themes?
-
- Or is a combination of the above the best solution?
The study seeks to investigate the above and discuss advocacy in an Ethiopian context.
Further, the study seeks to map and critically analyse existing development stakeholders in Ethiopia in order to assess existing capacity to plan and implement advocacy activities.

| Advocacy is a dynamic process which involves identification of a problem and formulating a solution. Hereafter the aim is to identify the actors in a position to realise the solution, to communicate with these actors and strategically influence their decisions. |
