International journal of health policy and management, 7(6), p.510. Blog Post: Advocacy and Stakeholders by J.W. - Saturday, 13 October 2018, 3:38 PM From a public health perspective this section of our course has been very interesting and thought provoking as to how public health policy can be influenced though advocacy and consultation from a bottom up approach at grassroots community level to other stakeholders closer to the government and policy makers. In our local area there was a groundswell against the proposed Public Shellharbour Hospital being changed to a new Private /Public Hospital policy for health care. Community advocacy argued that those who were more socially and economically disadvantaged would receive a poorer standard of health care. This resulted in the NSW State Government not proceeding (Wachsmuch 2017). In Kiama a dementia friendly community pilot project involving consultation with people with dementia resulted in changes to the build and social environment by the local council to improve social capital and inclusiveness of their community in regard to dementia (Rahman & Swaffer 2018). Althaus et al’s (2018) chapter on consultation provides an overview in terms of all possible stakeholders. There has been at an increase in consultation at all levels of government to provide greater transparency and trust in the population and provide legitimacy for the government policy. Public consultation can range from inform, consult, involve (partnership), collaborate and empower. This advocacy landscape has changed using main stream media and other forms of digital media and innovated ways such as ‘Citizen Juries’. The role of the Public Health sector as an advocate for change to improve social and economic inequalities was examined by Cohen & Marshall (2016). While it is acknowledged by many Australian State and Federal Government statutory bodies that the social determinants of health (SDOH) (AHIW 2018) are a major contributor to health inequalities very little has happened to address these issues. Cohen & Marshall (2106) believes the public health sectors should lead in the change of attitude and funds to ensure social justice and health equality for all. Chapman (2015) had advocated on public health issues in Australia for a number of years and advises in public health advocacy, arguments are evidence based, to use the media and social media, be prepared to put your argument at any time, use actual sufferers, be patient and not to be distracted by the opposition.

Responses: Re: Advocacy and Stakeholders By L.T. - Saturday, 13 October 2018, 4:17 PM Hi J, thank you for your impressive explanation of advocacy from the public health perspective. You mentioned that public health policy can be influenced by advocacy in a bottom-up level. And do you think it can be more reasonable or efficient than a top-down level? Because the policy thing in my home country is always controlled by the government, it is really hard for me to understand what can be done from bottom to top via advocacy. And if it is not powerful enough, will it waste a lot of resources? And thank you again for sharing your ideas. Re: Advocacy and Stakeholders By E.H. - Sunday, 14 October 2018, 6:24 PM Hi L. T., I think that bottom-up advocacy is particularly important because it can show where services are lacking in practice and identify gaps for those that a strategy is going to affect. Because -in my understanding- bottom-up advocacy usually starts small, it is hard to see it wasting a lot of resources, and usually the issues are important to those involved, so efforts would hardly seem ‘wasted’ to those involved t, if that is what you mean.

I relation to public health, this part of the course has been of great impact in terms of
policy decisions understanding and knowledge acquisition. Advocacy and stakeholders
are the number one factors that impact public health policy. Formulation and
implementation of a public health program/policy involve the community's advocacy and
the key stakeholders.
