Advocacy is the act of publicly supporting, promoting, or arguing for a particular cause, policy, or group of people, often to influence public opinion, legislation, or organizational decisions. Advocates work in fields like public policy, healthcare, human rights, and environmental protection, using tools such as lobbying, public campaigns, and coalition-building. It draws people motivated by a desire to drive social or institutional change on behalf of others.
