Ep. 7: Building Advocacy Coalitions (feat. Hannah Willard)
Just like in the game Risk, alliances are important in advocacy work too. Knowing who you can partner with and creating coalitions with your allies can help you expand your reach, draw from a larger pool of resources, and give weight to your demands. This week, Joe and Martín share their coalition building and coalition management best practices, as well as insights into how to use power mapping to achieve your coalition’s goals. This episode’s guest is Hannah Willard, an advocacy trainer and LGBTQ rights advocate who will explain how you can avoid internal conflict within your coalition and how each constituent organization can advance their own goals while still supporting the coalition.
