In my work supporting NGOs in media advocacy, there's one thing that comes up again and again in conversations, but it's almost never addressed in the several toolkits and handbooks one can find on engaging the media.
Everyone working on the ground acknowledges it's a problem, but nobody seems to have much advice about how to deal with it. I'm talking about the fact that in many countries, it's difficult to get into the news media without paying for coverage. I think it's high time that we had some serious discussion about this, and how to deal with it.
The APHA Media Advocacy Manual is a free manual focusing on how the media can be used to support public health advocacy. The publication is a good general guide to using the media to gain attention from decision-makers and influence policy change.

Sustainable Human Settlements and Integrated Urban Development
Most South African urban development NGOs have their roots in this country's anti-apartheid struggle when urban townships represented the battlefields of the physical resistance against the apartheid regime.
