Instruction:

Topic - Smoking

For this assessment, you will give a presentation to the class in small groups of 2 or 3.

The presentation should last 15 minutes.

In your presentation, you will propose an advocacy campaign relating to a specific public health problem. Your campaign will advocate for a specific outcome to address this public health problem.

The outcome should be policy relevant - for example, a new policy or a change to an existing policy. This outcome could be a change to regulation and/or legislation, or a commitment from

Government to increase funding for your public health issue.

Your proposed advocacy campaign should be a new idea (you can be creative in giving it a name). In developing this idea, you should research pre-existing advocacy campaigns in public health. This will provide you with insight into 'real world' advocacy campaigns and the sorts of strategies and activities they employ.

As a group decide the public health problem you will address and the solution you wish to achieve. In your presentation you should:
• Clearly articulate the health problem to be addressed through advocacy, highlighting the importance of the issue, supported by evidence.
• Clearly articulate the policy relevant outcome you wish to achieve from advocacy.
