Offering an interdisciplinary approach to child advocacy, this book nurtures key skills through a proven six-step process that has been used to train child advocates and create social change around the world. The approach is applicable for micro-advocacy for one child, meso-advocacy for a community or group of children, and macro-advocacy at a regional, national, or international level. Highly practical in its approach, this book offers skill-building activities and includes timely topics such as how to use social media for advocacy. Including a foreword from Jane Goodall and words of wisdom from noted child advocates from the U.S. and around the world the book illustrates key concepts to guide readers through the process of developing a plan and tools for a real-life child advocacy campaign.
