“Successful advocacy is based on three key ingredients – planning, timing and passion, with a little bit of luck thrown in” Raquel Peck, CEO of the World Hepatitis Alliance

Now that you are aware of the wider advocacy goals, it’s time for you to start thinking about your own advocacy activities. Advocacy can take place at any level – nationally, regionally or at a local-level. What’s important is that you have a considered advocacy strategy and goal.

This section covers the steps on how to create an advocacy strategy and provides tools and guidance to help you find your own answers.

NOHEP’S ADVOCACY TOOLKIT

Writing a letter Letters may seem basic but they are powerful tools to get your messages across. Writing letters to your policymaker is most impactful when you can get other organisations involved. For example, the more signatures or the number of letters sent, the more the issue becomes a priority.

Check out Appendix 2 for an example letter.

Setting up a meeting It may seem rudimental but one of the key points of lobbying is understanding how to set up a meeting. In the UK for example, MPs have regular surgeries to meet constituents, often on a Friday. It’s important to have a clear sense of when and what you want to speak about. This will increase your chances of securing that meeting.

Campaigning

World Hepatitis Day 2016

Campaigning is another effective advocacy activity. One which usually involves disseminating your messages to a wider audience. Campaigning can take many forms from setting up online petitions, holding a public stunt to attaching a filter to your Facebook profile picture.

Preparing a briefing paper An important note to remember is that policymakers aren’t always experts. They rely on advocates like us to provide them with the information. Therefore, it’s important to be accurate, clear and concise with your aims. A briefing paper is always a good resource to bring to the meeting. It should outline your cause and be tailored to that decision-makers remit of influence. Don’t forget to bring a couple of copies as they are useful to leave behind.

Don’t forget that you can also join international advocacy efforts too. When global leaders signed up to the SDGs and WHO’s elimination targets, they committed to taking actions for change. We can use these commitments to lobby both at a national and global level.

In the HIV/AIDS community, they use score cards to hold countries accountable by pressing their elected officials to turn commitments to action. You can also do this for hepatitis. Check out NOhep’s Race to 2030 campaign for more details.

If you’d like inspiration on organisations which are leading the way in campaigning, check out Oxfam, Save the Children, #MeToo or HeforShe campaigns.

Case Study: Launch of NOhep in Piccadilly Circus, London

Key questions to keep in mind when considering your campaign:

Will it raise awareness?

Is it in line with your advocacy goals?

On 28 July 2016, the World Hepatitis Alliance and The Hepatitis C Trust held the first hepatitis “die-in” in Piccadilly Circus, London to mark the launch of NOhep. Over 100 activists, patients and supporters lay down in solidarity to send a powerful message to world leaders that millions of people are dying despite the availability of vaccines and treatments for hepatitis B and a cure for hepatitis C.

3 Will it help to increase understanding of the issue amongst our audience?

Will it be fun?

Is it realistic?

Will it get media attention?

Will others get involved, are there other groups who can join in too?

Is it cost effective?

TOOL The Problem Tree The “problem and solution tree” below is a popular tool to use in thinking through your causes. It offers a visual structure to analyse the problem and solution. It should also help you understand the immediate, underlying and root causes of the issue, as well as help in gathering information to support the solutions. The solution aspect of the tree provides a visual structure of the solutions and how they can affect change.

Check out Print out the advocacy tree template on page 67 and use it for three different problems that you are passionate about addressing.

Provide free treatment Raise awareness of risks amongst vulnerable populations

Systematic screening in prison settings

Follow up care and support services linked

End incarceration of PWID

The problem tree has highlighted many different causes and solutions for our issues. Root causes such as poor education, health inequity and lack of access to treatment and diagnosis are emerging as some of the main causes of our issue. Some of the solutions identify decriminalisation of drug use, the need for systematic screening and universal access to hepatitis C treatment. At this point, you may be faced with many options to tackle in your advocacy plan. Now is the time to narrow your thoughts even further to find your goal. Remember, it’s always important to keep in mind the questions on page 16 when doing these exercises. It will keep you focused on what’s realistic for your organisation. The next step is to choose one of your root causes in the problem tree and apply the 5 Whys.

Decriminalise drug use

Most prisoners are living with hepatitis C unaware

Globally, 15% of people in prisons are living with hepatitis C

3 Then think deeper. For each of these roots ask ‘why?’ or ‘what causes that?’.

4 If you find that you don’t know the answer flag it up as an area for more research.

5 Finally add possible solutions to the branches.

Prisoners share needles and take part in unsafe tattooing practices Not all countries provide universal treatment coverage to prisoners

You may want to do this several times with the different root causes until you agree on an issue which aligns with your organisation’s mission and your expected impact.

Top tip Keep in mind that it while it would be ideal to advocate on all the issues identified, choosing just a few will help ensure focus and success. Above all, it is important to select an issue that is realistic and will drive action towards the 2020 targets.

5 Whys?

2 Brainstorm why the problem is happening and write the answers on the roots. You could use post-it notes to do this, so you can make changes as you go along.

The 5 Whys will help further develop your advocacy goal by repeating the question “Why?” five times, or as many times as needed.

First root cause:

Write your problem as the trunk.

Most prisoners are living with hepatitis C unaware

Injection drug use is common amongst prisoners

People in low-income / vulnerable settings are not aware of risk factors

PWIDs are incarcerated

Check out

Acquiring hepatitis C via injection drug use or through tattooing is widespread in many prison settings

Lack of proactive approaches to offering testing means that many prisoners are living with hepatitis C unaware

Insufficient resources including cost of tests and follow-up treatment, availability of medical staff and lack of knowledge about viral hepatitis reduces the motivation to test and treat

The cost of hepatitis C medications, the length of treatment, lack of prison medical staff, and the public reaction to spending large sums of money on the general prisoner health budget has stopped systematic testing and treatment

Governments often don’t have policies in place to support screening and treatment practices in prisons

Does it matter? There are breaches of the rules in all walks of life, so do the concerns outlined in the preceding pages really matter? Let’s ask some questions.

What was PPERA designed to do?

Just because a party has money does not mean it has electoral effectiveness, but the more it targets key seats the more the money it has becomes a factor.

The Act was passed in 2000 with the aim of restoring confidence in democracy both by ensuring donations to, and expenditure by, political parties were transparent and by imposing national spending limits to curb a spending arms race and encourage contests based on the merits of the parties’ respective programmes. As the Labour minister who introduced it in the House of Lords said, ‘The core purpose of this Bill is nothing less than to reinvigorate our democracy.’ PPERA has largely been a success in terms of transparency, but it has failed in its second aim to ensure that elections cannot be won as a result of disproportionate spending by one party. By definition, it is therefore failing in its purpose.

Does money actually influence election campaigning? Yes, and it is becoming more influential as parties find it harder to get volunteers out to deliver literature and knock on doors. Just because a party has money does not mean it has electoral effectiveness, but the more it targets key seats the more the money it has becomes a factor.17 And under the first-past-the-post electoral system, money can be used highly effectively in the handful of seats which will decide the outcome of an election nationally.

17 Fisher, J, ‘Legal regulation and political activity at the local level in Britain’ in ‘The Funding of Political Parties: Where Now?’ edited by Keith Ewing, Jacob Rowbottom and Joo-Cheong-Tham (Routledge, 2012) 16 ▪ ELECTIONS FOR SALE?

What difference does it really make to results? We can’t quantify what percentage difference the allegations of passing off constituency-specific expenditure as party spending would have made to the result in constituencies. All we can do is look at margins of victory and see whether the failure to observe the rules would have given one party a decisive advantage. In the constituencies where allegations of such practices were made at the 2015 election, several produced results where less than 3% of those voting for the winning candidate would have had to vote for the runner-up for the result to have been different, and in the case of Gower in South Wales the figure was 0.04%. In other words, the potential for practices which should be outlawed to influence the result is clear in certain constituencies. In 2017, 10 constituencies were won with majorities of less than 100, and 52 were won with majorities of less than 1000.

Where a breach is likely to have affected the outcome, the current punishment does not fit the crime.

Does the punishment fit the crime? If there are rules by which all candidates and parties have to adhere, the punishment for breaking those rules ought to be commensurate with the unfair advantage gained, otherwise wrongdoers can factor in the cost of breaking the rules knowing the result won’t be altered (‘the cost of doing business’ as the Electoral Commission’s chair John Holmes described it). And the bar for a re-run of an election to be ordered is set very high ― an MP effectively has to go to prison or lose a judgement in an election court before a re-run takes place. Clearly a minor breach of a rule that is unlikely to have made a difference to the result should trigger a sanction at the level of a slap on the wrist, but where a breach is likely to have affected the outcome, the current punishment does not fit the crime.

Data collection and analysis It is easy to look at direct mailshots, imported campaigning, telephone canvassing and social media, and look at the costs of these activities to the various parties. But one of the features that determines the effectiveness of these techniques is how much data a party has in the first place, and what use it can put it to. Therefore, the cost of buying in such data is crucial to the fair funding of politics.

The potential for large sums of money to buy data may be slipping under the radar, and thereby circumventing the purpose for which spending limits were set.

Data collection, analysis and use played a significant role in British politics for the first time at the 2015 election. In 2013, the Conservatives hired the American political strategist Jim Messina to help with their campaign. Messina is reported to have bought in lots of data which allowed for a more targeted approach to canvassing in 2015. The result of the election suggests this was very effective, but when was this data bought? And for how much money? If it was bought more than a year in advance, it is likely to have escaped all detection. And as national data bought by a party’s head office, it will have been swallowed up in the party spending allowance, even though its most decisive usage will have been for the benefit of candidates in marginal seats. In an interview with The Spectator three days after the 2015 general election, Messina said ‘I think we spent a total of £30 million on the election,’15 but he didn’t specify over what time period; the period is crucial given that £30 million is 50% more than the amount permitted year-long party spending allowance leading up to a general election. In other words, the potential for large sums of money to buy data that could be of vital importance in attracting floating 15 https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2015/05/jim-messina-interview-how-the-pollsters-got-itwrong-and-why-labour-lost/

voters in the marginal constituencies may be slipping under the radar, and thereby circumventing the purpose for which spending limits were set. There are also broader privacy issues surrounding the whole process of buying, aggregating, structuring, organising, manipulating and evolving data (and associated models). These are not financial issues but may present a form of unfair competition, and possibly illegal competition if it breaches data protection rules. Some of this is speculation, but there is enough evidence to indicate that the potential for getting round the rules is considerable, and that the problem is not just money, but money, secrets and privacy. The use of databases clearly cannot be wished away. The question is how the use of data can be monitored so it does not allow those with the largest sums of money to buy elections. The key may lie in a beefed up role for the Information Commissioner’s Office, the body that ensures compliance with data protection rules. After all, civil liberties and privacy issues go hand in hand with the freedom to choose one’s government and leaders, so ensuring a person’s right to withhold personal data may be as important a measure to be considered as ensuring the rules do not allow money to buy undue influence. In this context, it is worth noting that the new Information Commissioner, Elizabeth Denham, said in May 2017 she was opening a ‘high priority’ investigation into the use of data analytics for political purposes.16 Given that she recently confronted Facebook over privacy issues, she could have a crucial role to play.

The question is how the use of data can be monitored so it does not allow those with the largest sums of money to buy elections.

Conclusions There is by definition a problem The law is framed to promote confidence in the voting system by preventing those with the greatest wealth from using that wealth to disproportionately influence elections, yet there is ample evidence that this is happening, both through undetectable activities (Facebook and other digital techniques) and wrongly attributing candidatespecific activities to party spending allowances. There is therefore by definition a problem, and doing nothing ought not to be an option. The fact that no-one has been prosecuted over the alleged breaches of spending rules at the 2015 election does not mean everything is satisfactory ― the CPS judged solely on the basis of whether it could prove intent to commit a criminal offence. The law is intended to promote confidence in the democratic process, and even if no-one was prosecuted, the evidence presented by Channel 4 News, The Canary, this report and other sources, along with the concerns and

18 ▪ ELECTIONS FOR SALE?

calls for reform expressed by Unlock Democracy, the Electoral Reform Society and others, suggest that the intention of the law is not being realised.

There is an absence of clarity There is clearly a whole range of interpretations of the existing rules as they apply to party-specific and candidate-specific expenditure, which leads to different ideas of good practice from constituency to constituency. The Electoral Commission’s guidance appears to be inadequate and at times inconsistent.

The current system encourages a presidential-style election Under the British electoral system, voters vote for their MP, not for the Prime Minister. They can take into account who they would like as Prime Minister when they make their choice from a handful

of local candidates, and many do, but they are still voting for their MP. Yet the fact that the current rules allow for national figures, indeed national party officers, to be counted under party expenditure limits when working for specific candidates means there is an in-built financial incentive to use national assets in local election campaigns rather than local assets. Meanwhile, nonparty campaigners have to account for staff costs at a national level, so there is inconsistency of rules between parties and nonparty actors.

The collection, analysis and use of data is now a fundamental issue As political campaigning techniques become more centralised and electronic, and less localised and paper-based, the role of personal data relating to all 46 million Britons with the right to vote is becoming ever more important. This makes the rules on data protection ― and their

enforcement ― a central part of guaranteeing a fair election. This is not distinct from the issue of money but a parallel issue related to wider data protection concerns.

Enforcement is at the heart of the credibility of the rules Any rule that cannot be enforced merely serves to separate those with a conscience from those who feel the only crime is getting caught, and there are big questions about the enforceability of the current election spending rules. The presence of different bodies monitoring candidates’ and parties’ spending seems to defy common sense.

Campaign spending periods need to be reassessed The focus in this report is on the ‘short campaign’, the period from when Parliament is dissolved (31

March in the case of 2015) to polling day (7 May). But much spending happens well before this period which can escape detection despite having a serious influence on elections.

It is important not to overregulate It’s very easy to look at a situation where actors are riding roughshod over rules and conclude that the answer is greater regulation. But overregulation in this context has the potential to discriminate against smaller parties that couldn’t afford the lawyers, accountants and trained administrators needed to stay within the rules.

A proportional voting system would solve a lot of the problem This is the elephant in the room. Many of the questionable practices highlighted in this report would not happen if all constituencies were worth

the same investment of resources, something that does not happen under the first-past-the-post voting system. However, even under a mixed-member proportional system such as those used for the devolved institutions in Scotland, Wales and London, one would not totally eliminate marginal constituencies.

The situation must be kept under constant review Technology and human inventiveness are constantly changing the reality that affects the rules of electoral engagement. The social media landscape is forever evolving, and what of artificial intelligence and its likely impact on election campaigning? This is largely speculation at present, but the potential for AI to have a major impact is immense. Therefore, there is a need for regular reviews and revisions to keep the rules aimed at guaranteeing financially fair elections up to date.

CHILD MARRIAGE – RATES DOWN, NUMBERS UP

In the past five years as the scale and urgency of tackling child marriage has increasingly been recognised, we now understand the trends better than ever before. Is the world making progress? Are rates and numbers increasing or decreasing? Recent analysis tells a story of modest progress in terms of child marriage rates.

Globally, the practice of child marriage is declining, especially when it comes to marriage of girls under age 15

However, this progress is incredibly fragile and business as usual is not an option; while rates are falling, growing populations mean the absolute number of child

The global trends suggest that change is possible, but it takes time. While it is clear that we can take massive steps quickly to address child marriage, these efforts will need to be sustained and the impact in terms of 8

Funding for the field

Where are we today?

Significant change at community level requires adequate financial resources. However, before 2011, there was little funding specifically targeted towards ending child marriage, either within the budgets of high prevalence governments or through official development aid. Given the range of solutions to tackle child marriage, interventions tended to fall within donor programming on girls’ empowerment or sectoral investments in related fields such as education, justice, health and social protection. However, because these interventions were often not tracked as child marriage programmes, it was and remains difficult to say what level of investment there actually is in child marriage prevention and support to married girls. What was generally clear though was that funding for ending child marriage was inadequate.

“It’s a very human issue, one at the centre of a wide range of challenges girls and women still face. We don’t think we can work on reproductive health, women’s rights, girls’ education, or women’s economic empowerment without addressing a widespread and fundamental issue like this one.”

An important contribution of the movement has been to increase the profile of child marriage globally to help generate more funding and investment to bring child marriage to an end. Investments in interventions directly tackling child marriage have accelerated in the past five years.

Luis Ubiñas, then President of the the Ford Foundation at the launch of Girls Not Brides in 2011

However, the response remains inadequate compared to the scope of the problem. Grassroots organisations working directly on the frontline in communities still face significant difficulties accessing funding.

Since then, more private foundations have made commitments specifically to address child marriage, with at least a dozen now directly funding work to

Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child urged African Union Member States to set 18 as the minimum age of marriage and to develop and implement holistic strategies. Others have helped to provide guidance in areas where there was previously no consensus: for example, the Southern African Development Community adopted guidance on what makes a strong legal framework through its model law on child marriage, and Girls Not Brides developed a check-list to guide the development of national strategies to end child marriage.

Looking forward The commitments in international fora have so far acknowledged the importance of holistic responses and cross-sectoral policies and programmes to tackle child marriage. They have recognised the drivers and impacts of child marriage, and have begun to outline the actions that governments must take to end the practice.

causes, context-specific drivers and life-long consequences – and outline more specific steps that governments must take to end it, across all sectors, including those involved in development and humanitarian aid.

Future resolutions at the Human Rights Council and the UN General Assembly will need to reflect the evolving understanding of child marriage – particularly the root

The international community will continue to play an important role in monitoring the implementation of commitments, particularly in ensuring implementation and financing of the Sustainable Development Goals target and fulfilling human rights obligations.

Teresa’s Story

“

I first started working at Albert Edward Prince of Wales Court in Porthcawl in 1992 as a carer on night shifts. My mother had worked at the Home since it opened and thought that working nights would fit in with my family life as I had two young children at the time.

“

I was promoted to Deputy Home Manager at the beginning of 2018. My role is varied and interesting.

WWW.RMBI.ORG.UK

“

fter my first year, I enrolled in an access to health course at my local college which helped me realise that I did have the skills to increase my level of knowledge. I went on to apply for nursing college and completed a BSC in Nursing Practice. I then worked in high dependency care integrated with intensive care and completed

by MSC in Advanced Practice and Independent Prescribing. I came back to work at the Home but this time as a Registered General Nurse (RGN) and was working bank shifts. Things have changed over the years but I still love the Home as much as before. My children used to visit regularly and attended lots of activities that were held here. My daughter first visited the Home when she was two weeks old and she is now a nurse here. In 2015, I retired from the NHS and took on a part-time role of RGN/ Clinical Lead at Albert Edward Prince of Wales Court. The Manager thought I had a lot to offer with my vast level of experience. Unfortunately in April 2017, we experienced a difficult time with an incomplete senior

management team, which has now been addressed. I supported the Home by becoming a full time Clinical Lead and ended up learning a lot about the management side of the care home. I was fully supported by the Home Manager at the time, who helped me to nurture my skills and gain confidence to become part of the management team. I was promoted to Deputy Home Manager at the beginning of 2018. My role is varied and interesting. I am very involved in medications which are now computerised and it has given me the opportunity to support other members of staff. I enjoy working for RMBI Care Co. and have been supported throughout my time here with advice and training. It is a supportive environment for staff to work in.”

The revenue generated by our care homes in 2017/18 increased by £1.5m to £49m, whilst achieving an average occupancy of 87.6%.

n October 2017, we extended our services to provide residential accommodation and care for people with learning difficulties by acquiring Harry Priestley House, which had net assets value of £404k. Masonic donations, legacies income and donations from the Masonic Charitable Foundation (MCF) were £4.2m. Income from investments and other activities amounted to £1.9m. In 2017/18, the cost of providing care to our residents increased by 5.8% to £49.4m. The payments from local authorities towards the care of supported residents were considerably lower than the cost

of care. As a result, we provided charitable contributions amounting to £7.3m to support residents to cover this shortfall. We continued to improve our care facilities by investing £7.4m on building new rooms, refurbishing our existing facilities and maintaining properties. The secured loans provided to Masonic beneficiaries to enhance their quality of life reached £1m. We invested £245k in staff training to support our staff in their roles and to enable them to provide the best possible care to our residents.

Awareness • Healthy Eating Tips for Shift Workers • Diabetes

We provide a light snack for employees working shifts of more than 6 hours a day at our care homes, and an additional hot meal for those who are working a long day (10 hours or more). If you work shifts, you may find that eating well can be a real challenge, especially during the night shifts. Yet healthy eating is vital to feeling your best, both on and off the job. Here’s a look at some health and nutrition issues that shift workers often face, and practical tips to help overcome some of the common challenges.

Health Issues Affecting Shift Workers

Eating well and being active can help you avoid or address some of the key health issues. Research shows that shift workers: • •

•

Have an increased risk of heart disease, angina, high blood pressure and stroke. Often feel tired or disorientated, and have trouble falling asleep or getting good sleep. Chronic sleep deprivation is associated with being overweight, which is clearly a risk to your health. Experience more digestive problems such as constipation, diarrhoea, gas, heartburn and indigestion. These problems can be aggravated by poor nutrition and lack of exercise, all common factors among shift workers.

Andy Calabozo, Caracas, 1988. • Materializa o seu interesse pela ilustração em 2011 quando abandona o curso de Arquitetura para se dedicar a uma carreira neste campo. O seu fascínio pelo estranho e surreal levam-no a desenvolver um trabalho repleto de criaturas desfiguradas e elementos grotescos em composições bizarras e paisagens alienígenas. Aurea Praga, natural do Funchal, vive actualmente no Porto. Dedica-se à joalharia e à ilustração, estabelecendo relações entre estas duas áreas. Mestre em Design de Produto e Interfaces (ESAD Matosinhos) em que apresentou a tese de projecto "Desenhar uma história para colocar no dedo", Pós-Graduada em Design de Joalharia (ESAD Matosinhos) e Licenciada em Design de Comunicação (FBAUP Porto), o seu percurso orientou-a para o género narrativo da joalharia, em que articula peças e ilustrações, testando várias abordagens. Carolina Celas cresceu numa pequena vila rodeada de montanha e natureza, no norte de Portugal, de onde guarda memórias que diz reflectirem-se no seu trabalho actual. Licenciada inicialmente em Design pela Universidade de Aveiro decidiu mudar-se para Barcelona para estudar ilustração na Escola Eina Art y Disseny. Desde aí que tem desenvolvido trabalho pessoal em ilustração e mantido colaborações com agências de publicidade, estúdios de design, espaços criativos e público infantil sedeados em diversos pontos da União Europeia. No último ano iniciou MA em Visual Communication no Royal College of Art em Londres onde permanecerá nos próximos dois anos.

O seu trabalho abrange os campos do desenho, da ilustração e técnicas de impressão, onde explora vários temas através de grafite e principalmente através de tinta-da-china e de pincéis. Recentemente completou o Mestrado de Desenho e Técnicas de Impressão pela F.b.a.u.p. Yey!

Heymikel aka Miguel Sousa is a creative art director and illustrator, based in Madrid. He was born in Penafiel but it was in the town of the rooster where he continued his formation in IPCA. As regular activities he draws compulsively in his graphic diary. Miguel’s an Art director but illustration is his favorite area. • Miguel has a degree in graphic design and is taking a masters degree in illustration and animation. • His goal in life is to do what he loves and make a living of it.

Em 2004 começou a expôr individual e colectivamente, tendo recentemente participado na colectiva “Maia — Cidade Em Performance 0.2” no Fórum da Maia. • Trabalha sobretudo com livros e ilustração. • www.miguelministro.com Nicolau é designer gráfico de formação. Agora está mais virado para a ilustração. Não há realmente mais nada que se possa dizer aqui sobre ele que não o venha a comprometer no futuro. Portanto, é preferível não nos adiantarmos mais no assunto para evitar futuros inconvenientes na vida deste mero aprendiz de sapateiro. Poderemos talvez apenas dizer que ultimamente tem revelado um leve interesse pelo trombone, mas ainda não perdeu o medo para ganhar a coragem para comprar um. • nicolau.pt
