Emma and Martine take you inside the real-world challenge of engaging 700+ election candidates across Australia. Explore how minor parties and regional candidates responded differently than major parties, why the UK Supreme Court ruling changed everything mid-campaign, and how persistence and professionalism opened doors. From tracking response rates to pivoting messaging in real-time, this is grassroots advocacy in action.__DonateIf you wish to donate to AAWAA you can do so by making a direct deposit or bank transfer to:Account name: Affiliation of Australian Women’s Advocacy AlliancesAccount number: 04201471BSB: 325-185__Disclosure statementVoices in this podcast are AI-generated clones of real, named AAWAA members, created and used with their informed consent to help amplify women's words and stories.
