Abstract
We began by examining what participants felt they Know (K) and what they Wonder (W) about advocacy. KWL is a writing and collaborative learning strategy that solicits existing knowledge from participants along with questions they have about the subject. We ended the session discussing what participants Learned (L) about advocacy. (The facilitator (s) takes visual notes on a large sheet of paper- these are used at the end of the session to check that questions and concerns have been addressed.) This strategy can be used when developing an advocacy plan to assess what participants know about a particular issue, along with its stakeholders and decision makers; what they wonder or want to know more about the issue, stakeholders and decision makers, and after a campaign to sum up what they learned about advocating for a particular issue.
