Government Relations and Issues management are two distinct but often interconnected areas of public relations activity. They are both about political and policy advocacy. We are using 'political' here with a small 'p'. We are not talking about party politics. This unit is about how rules and resources are contested, allocated and organised in a society. Public relations people and community campaigners lobby and direct information within the political system and the associated media to audiences, in ways which are appropriate in a democracy. The aim is to protect and further the interests of organisations, individuals and communities.Assessment -- Course Website
