Advocacy evaluation

Advocacy evaluation is when experts look at a cause that someone or a group supports and tries to measure the effects of their efforts. This type of evaluation is used to measure whether or not the cause someone or a group supports is making a difference. The experts use data to help figure out how much impact the advocacy efforts are having on the cause. It's important to do advocacy evaluation because it can help identify successes and challenges and help advocates improve their advocacy techniques over time.
