Welcome to the Advocacy Foundations Program

This program is designed to introduce you to advocacy from the ground up. You’ll build a strong foundation — learning what advocacy means, where it is used, how to apply it in everyday life, and how to advocate for yourself or others.

The curriculum is organised into five pillars. Each pillar contains short EduGuides you can read in any order, or follow step-by-step as a complete learning journey.
