The toolkit is a practical resource that emphasizes that advocacy is possible even in restrictive contexts. The toolkit places the planning process within the context of risk assessment and mitigation, which is essential in these environments.

The COVID-19 crisis has increased authoritarian restrictions on civil society globally. Though this toolkit was produced prior to the pandemic, the case studies included speak to a moment when advocacy needs to navigate around such restrictions.
