For your information.

Tearfund and World Vision International, have produced a booklet for partners
on advocacy and DRR. The booklet is
aimed at organisations which are already involved in DRR, but have not yet
considered an advocacy approach. It sets out why advocacy on DRR is
important, why governments should be held accountable, and how civil society
can influence them. The booklet, available in English and French (and soon
also Spanish) can be found on the Tearfund website
http://tilz.tearfund.org/Research/Disaster+Risk+Reduction+reports/ . Hard
copies will be available in December.
