  7. Identifying the problem is Key • Macro level – is the PRSP pro-poor? • If pro-poor, is it gender-responsive? • How does specific issue (women garment workers & WTO) relate to other macro policy issues? – liberalization, lack of employment, rural development, HRD etc • Cambodian Team Experience - difficult to identify mainstream issues • Lack technical knowledge • Focused on women • Not “at the decision-making table”

  8. To identify best strategies • Need: • Engendered data • Gender-responsive analysis by sex and other relevant socio-economic dimensions • Gender-sensitive national staff • Gender-sensitive international advisors and donors – especially for LDCs - especially when NOT considering women • Identify several alternative strategies • Evaluate pros & cons (gender perspective) • Assess costs and benefits • Select best strategy

  9. Implementation – Advocacy Strategy Map Develop an Advocacy Map to identify: • stakeholders • roles of each stakeholder • Beneficiaries • Advocates • Policy makers • Programme implementation • Monitoring & evaluation • specific actions required of each • most effective advocates for each stakeholder

  10. Developing an advocacy strategy • Consultations with stakeholder groups • To identify message to motivate stakeholder to act • Evidence needed to support – “sell” - the message to that stakeholder • Identify specific target and advocacy medium (lobbying? Campaign? Posters? etc) • Monitor implementation & results

  11. National machineries for women & women’s NGOs have vital roles in advocacy & monitoring

  12. Group Work 114:30 – 14:50 • In country groups, taking same policy action as this morning: • Identify SOME stakeholders – agencies, groups involved in or have an interest in this? • For each stakeholder • identify role or interest • action needed for gender-responsive implementation? • Prepare a Policy Map on a Flip Chart for gallery viewing

  13. Gallery Viewing Group Work 114:50 – 14:55Note: stakeholder groups you may have overlooked

  14. Group Work 214:55 – 15:30 (with tea break) Select ONE stakeholder or group to be targeted for advocacy. • What advocacy message might persuade them to take the required action? • How could this message be most effectively presented to that stakeholder? • What would be the specific role or contribution to the advocacy for: • National Women’s Machinery? • Civil Society?

  15. Group Work 2 Reporting Mia Hyun 15:30 – 16:00

  16. Role of Civil Society in Advocacy – Indonesian experience Presentation: Ms Titik Hartini, ASPUK 16:00 - 16:15

  17. Country & Regional Groups • VN: Need to work at from central to local levels • LaoPDR: inter-sectoral linkages - infrastructure and social service delivery • Indonesia-Timor Leste: focus on consequences of poor health care: loss of life • Mongolia: reverse gender gap – how to increase boys without decreasing girls’ education • Cambodia: action at local level: link to policy change • Regional group: linking grassroots voice to policy papers, consideration of macro economic context

  18. Synthesis/ Mia Hyun16:15 – 16:30 • Policy action is starting point: what change do you want to see and what action needs to be taken? • Who are your allies? Who are the decision makers? • When do they make decisions? – critical entry points • Strategize around these • Each stakeholder/decision-maker needs a specific message • Evidence to support these? • alternative indicators? • Costing/budget allocation – source of funds?

  19. Strategizing for the October regional Conference on PRS Shireen Lateef, ADB

  20. What next? • ONE personal commitment – what will YOU do when you return home? • COUNTRY follow-up – what follow-up action/s from the country group? • Suggestions – for World Bank, ADB, UNIFEM/UNDP, donor follow-up?
