This book traces the recent growth in NGO advocacy. Barbara
Rugendyke presents empirical findings about the impacts of NGO
advocacy activity on the policies and practices of global and
regional institutions. The research reveals the mixed successes of
advocacy as a strategy for addressing the ongoing causes of poverty
in developing nations. Case studies illustrate the advocacy work of
Australian NGOs, of British NGOs policies about engaging with
multinationals, of Oxfam Internationala (TM)s advocacy directed at
World Bank policies and NGO advocacy in the Mekong Region.
Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, the mixed successes of
advocacy as a strategy used by NGOs in attempting to address the
ongoing causes of poverty in developing nations are examined. This
volume is a useful aid to researchers, students and lecturers and
to development practitioners interested in advocacy as a
development strategy.
