ADVOCACY COALITIONS AND LEGISLATIVE LOBBYING FOR INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

Greg Mitchell

The Review of Faith & International Affairs, 2012, vol. 10, issue 3, 51-57

Abstract: Since US laws impact religious communities around the world, a US legislative lobbying strategy is a vital component of any effort to promote international religious freedom. The most important part of any such strategy is a coalition that coordinates joint advocacy. It must be guided by key principles: 1) It has to be multi-faith in nature; 2) Its participants must display unity and solidarity when taking joint advocacy actions; 3) Joint advocacy actions should urge policymakers to utilize aggressive oversight in all countries where religious freedom violations occur; 4) Joint advocacy actions must be designed and executed in bipartisan fashion.
