Abstract

The rise of advocacy non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in recent decades has seen this sector of civil society emerge as a key player in processes of policy reform. Yet individual NGOs engaged in advocacy are often small and weak relative to the powerful institutions they seek to reform. To address this situation, great store has been placed in the role of networking.
