Decision Maker & Communications – People who decide what should happen in a march.Once you know you can get people to come the march, you have got to cover some basic roles. Build hype : Organize a panel or a film screening to hype up the event, or do a social media stunt.

Person to person: Wheatpaste posters, flyer, set up outreach tables, go door-to-door, call and text your friends.

Web outreach: Use email lists, update on your website, make a facebook event, post on free newspaper sites and blogs, write article in alternative media sites.

Once you have decided what to do, you’ve got to outreach, outreach, outreach! Some things you should definitely do are: When is the best time? Decide whether you need to do it during the day or in the evening, during a work day or on a holiday? Is there a specific day – the Refugees Rights Day or World Water Day – that is coming up? Where is the best place to get at the things you’ve identified in the Why and the Who discussions. Who is your community that will definitely come, who are people you want to try and reach out to, who are some allies you can bring in to this process, who are the decision makers and targets?

Why are you organizing the protest? How will you know you have succeeded? By being clear about what winning looks like in this case, you can determine what kind of protest or demonstration you should organize. They are the means to assert power, to take power, to pressure a target and to do get what our communities need. Protests are an integral and necessary part of our social movements.
