Title of this Module
How to engage in public policy advocacy in each Balkan country

Description
Why should business associations engage in advocacy? Because many times, the best solution to a problem, the knowledge needed to formulate a solution to a problem, stays with the business community. The business community is the one affected directly by certain laws. They know exactly what barriers [to doing business] they have. So in many cases, they have the solution. The issue is how do they transform that knowledge and transfer that knowledge to the government or to the parliament so that it becomes an effective policy? And that is the advocacy road. When do you advocate? You advocate every day – when you’re trying to influence policies, when you’re trying to amend a piece of legislation, when you’re trying to change a regulation, whether at the central level or at the regional level, then this means that you are advocating.
