This was a meeting of the lobbyist from several European Countries, that already have this experience of this program for some time. There were people from Poland:), Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Malta, Turkey and Moldova.
It is great that all the people are so intelligent, well mannered and know a lot of things. We had a great hotel and great food. We also visited an indian restaurant and and had vegetarian food every day. That was a great experience, there is no such level in Moldova.
We had some great sessions about the EU Office, International Secretariat and different stuff like how to build a strategy for achieving certain aim.
We shared the experience about how they manage to solve different problems, what kind of methods they use for lobbying. There are three general ways of activity for lobbying a certain thing in general:
1. Lobbying itself, which is working with the legislation, meeting with different important people.
2. Campaigning, which is the work with the public directly, informing the people, collecting signatures and stuff like that.
3. Mass Media, working with the press, making them interested in the problem and write about it everywhere, especially using the social communities and any kind of internet solutions.
