The Advocacy Pocket Guide by Protection International Africa provides a practical, disability-inclusive framework designed to empower Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) with disabilities to effectively influence policy and hold duty-bearers accountable. Rooted in key principles like “Nothing About Us Without Us,” intersectionality, and accessibility, the guide outlines an 8-step advocacy process covering context analysis, SMART goal setting, actor mapping, message development, strategy selection, action planning, risk mitigation, and monitoring. Additionally, it highlights the distinction between general advocacy and targeted lobbying while prioritizing digital safety and physical inclusion across all initiatives.
