Students have had some impressive victories on campuses this year: they have pressured Burger King to increase wages for the people that pick its tomatoes, convinced their campuses to become more energy efficient, and even helped to pass the Sudan Accountability and Divestment Act. This training will explore some of the ways that you can make your campaign more successful. From creating a strategy and evaluating your tactics, to crafting a message and building support on campus, this training will help you put all of the pieces together for an outstanding victory on your issue! This training will be presented by Pedro de la Torre III, Advocacy Senior Associate at Campus Progress and Rosanna Herrera, Events Manager at Campus Progress.
