Only 4 (and a bit) weeks to go! We’re counting the days until Advocacy Awareness Week 2022 starts (7th -11th November), and we are really looking forward to sharing some amazing content with you during the week.
Have you had a look at this year’s daily themes which focus on Advocacy and Human Rights?
Tuesday Right to be safe from inhuman or degrading treatment.
Thursday Right to respect for private and family life.
Friday Right to be free from discrimination.
How can you use these themes to show the great work you do through delivering independent advocacy?
We have loads of resources and temples you can adapt:
- AAW22 Template news release
- AAW logo 2022
- Themes AAW22
- AAW22 Daily themes presentation slides
- Power Point Template for campaign messages and stories 2022
