3.3. Building alliances
You’ve looked at developing a key priority for action in the group and you have built a detailed plan to try and get the change you need. You don’t have to do all of this entirely on your own of course. In fact, you are unlikely to be able to achieve your goal without the help of others as we saw in the last activity, 3.2(c) Resourcing The Plan. This aim explores how to seek out and create alliances, for mutual benefit with like-minded individuals and groups. These activities will help you think through who might be out there, who might be able to help you and how you might be able to bring them on board. Useful resources for you will be your community plan that you developed in 2.2 Mapping communities and your work on community links and support in unit 2.3 Identifying community links and allies.
