Advocacy is the pursuit of influencing outcomes — including public-policy and resource
allocation decisions within political, economic, and social systems and institutions — that
directly affect people’s lives. Therefore, advocacy can be seen as a deliberate process of
speaking out on issues of concern in order to exert some influence on behalf of ideas or
persons.
