Advocacy
We have joined this year the advocacy work of organisations in Ottawa who have great experience in this domain. We support Ecology Ottawa, CAFES Ottawa, and other networks we are part of. We hope you will join us in developing our advocacy capacity and we promise to make it easy for you to support it.
Here we publish, for example, template letters that you could send to your local representative or letters that GentleWays for OurPlanet has sent, along with any responses that we get. We are confident many voices, and many small actions together will make a big difference.
