Description
Loomus is originally a political advocacy organization. Over the years, new people have joined and former active members are not involved in everyday work. Therefore, the organization has knowledge that is not currently being used to its full extent.
The purpose of the project is to bring together long-term activists and their knowledge and experience with new people and thereby enhance advocacy activities in the field of animal protection.
Essential activities are regular meetings within the organization in order to discuss advocacy strategies, involvement of volunteers, and to enhance active participation in the advocacy network. The project includes two training sessions on advocacy and a team event to share experiences.
Systematically working on advocacy provides an opportunity to create a clearer system and structure in the organization, to measure the impact of our work, and to involve new people. Therefore, the project also strengthens the management and develops transparency of Loomus as it makes more visible the field of animal advocacy.
Active participation in the advocacy network helps Loomus members to learn from others, to exchange experiences, to develop the work of the network, and to create stronger partnerships with others.
The target groups are politicians and others persons involved in legislation, as well as people interested in animal protection.
