Programme goals

The training aims to raise awareness of the importance of research, data and evidence for reasoned discussion and advocacy before decision makers. The training is primarily intended for researchers from the academic and civic sectors, who collect data, analyze, have structured findings and conclusions, and lack the last link to represent the arguments before the institutions.

This program is structured on the basis of a set of advocacy tools prepared by the CMC, which are aimed at advocating before the executive and legislative bodies, as well as before the parties aspiring to participate in the work of these institutions. The tools are practically applicable to most public policies.

  • Understand the key features of evidence-based advocacy
  • Know how to present collected data as evidence of their arguments in a clear and unambiguous manner
  • Communicate with the representatives of the institutions in an effective way
  • Have the skill to use the tools that are part of the set of tools
  • Identify challenges before embarking on advocacy activities
