Introduction and Summary
The Campaign Toolkit is designed to help individuals or groups in planning and carrying out a political campaign, whether it is at a local or national level.
The Toolkit is broken into seperate sections:
- Campaign Planning and Preparation
- Dealing With The Media
- Using the Internet
- Organising A Public Meeting
- On The Streets
- Printed Material
- Working With Volunteers
- Winning Partners & Third Party Endorsements
- Lobbying Politicians
Can you help us?
Over time, we want to build these pages up to become an authoritative guide to grassroots campaigning. You can help improve this site by doing the following:
- Add case studies
- Redraft sections
- Add sections
Entry Notes
Keep titles short and to the point, and add '(Campaign Toolkit)' at the end to avoid confusion. For example, we have called the page on the media Media (Campaign Toolkit) rather than 'Dealing With The Media' or just 'Media' (another page on the media could be included in this wiki in another context).
If you want to add a major new section, include it in the summary above and on the Template:Campaign Toolkit page (this creates the menu bar at the top of all Campaign Toolkit pages). See also Help:Template.
If you are unsure where to put something or have any general comments, add a comment on the Campaign Toolkit Discussion page (note that each individual page has a similar comments facility - just click on discussion at the top of the page in question to access this).
Any other queries? Email James Graham for guidance.
