For your initial post, address the following:
Reflect on all the work you have put into your advocacy action plan to advocate for social change.
How could you make your plan a reality?
Are there any areas of your plan that you may want to revise? This may be based on feedback received throughout the course or on your own reflection on the development process.
Why is it necessary to continue advocating for the chosen movement or interest group?
To what extent is it necessary for continued vigilance once a change has become realized?
How can you be an active citizen and advocate for change regarding your selected social movement or interest group?
How can you initiate, maintain, or foster needed political or social change in your community as it relates to sustainability, social justice, and/or civic responsibility?
For your response posts, address the following:
What have you learned from this course that will help your peer take their next steps to being an active citizen and advocating for change regarding their selected issue?
Reflect on your peer’s description of how they can be an active citizen and advocate for social change. Some ideas you could share in your reflection include the following:
What challenges might they face in trying to initiate, maintain, or foster needed political or social change, and how can they overcome these challenges?
How can your peer measure their progress and track their impact?
How can your peer build relationships with other people who share their values and goals?
How else could your peer make their action plan a reality? Suggest any ideas or resources that they might find helpful. Alternatively, how might your peer’s implementation ideas broaden the possibilities of making your own plan a reality?
