Advocacy
Is an important component of social mobilization which involves “convincing, persuading, and motivating individuals and entities” that there is a problem and that there are appropriate policies and strategies which could be adopted for solving such a problem. (Valdecanas, et al., 1996).
![Page 27: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

![Page 31: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Information, Education and Communication (IEC)
Examples of IEC strategies are the design, packaging, and production of appropriate radio/TV programs, news, spots, shows, documentary films, newspaper articles, posters, books, newsletters, leaflets, pamphlets, stickers, or even messages on particular items like T-shirts, caps, plastic bags, etc.
![Page 32: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Information, Education and Communication (IEC)

Community Organizing (CO)
Aims to “empower local leaders, parents, families, groups, and the whole community.” (Stuart 1995)
Basic element in mobilization at the grassroots level.
![Page 46: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

An essential element in encouraging community participation.
![Page 47: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Community Organizing (CO)
Helps develop people’s “capability for problem-solving, decision making, and collective action thus, developing and strengthening their networks” (Stuart 1995).
Through its activities, people are enabled to perceive the problem, recognize what they can do, and eventually work their way out of it.
![Page 48: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Training/Capability Building
![Page 49: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Training/Capability Building
Can be directed both towards the program implementers themselves and towards the beneficiaries/intended audience.
Use to enhance “people’s knowledge, appreciation of, and skills in advocacy, mobilization, and community organizing of people empowerment” (Stuart 1995).
![Page 50: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Training/Capability Building
Develop people’s “competencies in dealing with their networks, in resource sharing, problem-solving, decision-making, and most importantly, collective action” (The Sixth Training 1996).
Enhances continuous expansion of the network of advocates and mobilizers, thus contributing to the sustainability of the whole socmob process.
![Page 51: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

Networking and Alliance Building
The “common thread” that runs through all the other socmob elements (Valdecanas, et al. 1996).
Adds to the success of any mobilization activity by identifying those who can “actually and potentially act on the problem” and establishing close collaboration with them (Stuart 1995).
![Page 53: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Networking and Alliance Building

They might be also helpful in securing the support and commitment of government officials, be it at the local or national level.
![Page 54: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
![Page 55: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
It is a socmob component strategy which measures the “efficiency of program implementation and the effectiveness of the strategies taken in achieving defined goals” (Stuart 1995).
The meter stick used for periodic checks on the progress of the program as it moves towards its ultimate goals.
![Page 56: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
Focus in Monitoring (The Sixth Training 1996)
These things serve as indicators in determining whether or not there is
discrepancy between where you are and where you should be.
![Page 57: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
Level - looks at the stage of the project where you are against where you
should already be.
Timing - says how long you have already been working on this activity vis-à-vis
the allotted time.
Effectiveness - looks into what has been accomplished so far.
![Page 58: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
EVALUATION
Was described by Piotrow, et al. (1997) as a process which determines whether the program objectives were met – that is, whether the intended audience changed their knowledge, attitudes, or behavior.
![Page 59: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
“An assessment of whether or not the program or project strategies actually worked out” (The Sixth Training 1996).
It involves activities such as information gathering and analysis and discussion with program staff, sponsors, and decision-makers which as a process can be done before, during, and after the program implementation.
![Page 60: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
Timing depends on factors such as (The Sixth Training 1996):
Decision-making need Pre-identified purposes of evaluation Work cycle of those involved in the
activity
![Page 61: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
Three Types of Evaluation (The Sixth Training 1996)
Formative Evaluation On-going Evaluation Summative Evaluation
![Page 62: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
Formative Evaluation
is the gathering of information relevant to decision-making during the planning or implementation stages of a program. It sometimes known as context evaluation, needs assessment, situational analysis, or diagnostic research.
![Page 63: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
On-going Evaluation
is done during the project implementation phase. It involves analysis of the program in terms of continuing relevance, outputs, effectiveness, and impact.
![Page 64: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Monitoring and Evaluation
Summative Evaluation
is apparently carried out at the latter part of a program or after its completion. It aims to sum up the accomplishments, impacts, and lessons learned.
![Page 65: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Interrelatedness of Socmob Elements
![Page 66: Social Mobilization Strategies](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061106/54459849afaf9fe72a8b45bc/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
“Advocacy ensures the continuation of support. IEC sustains the awareness of the problems and solutions. CO allows the community to unify and seek solutions to problems. Training maintains the commitment and cooperation of program implementers as it integrates new techniques and approaches in the solution. Alliance building identifies relevant individuals and groups who can contribute to the achievement of the goals of the program. Monitoring and evaluation shows us how to improve our techniques. It gives us the feedback we need --- are we solving the problem or not.”
