IGLYO on... STRATEGIESD
n.3 - September / 2007

Dear friends,

Welcome to the third edition of our magazine! In this issue, all our contributors deal with the subject ‘how to create effective strategies’.

Why? Because we often focus our work on daily realities. The things we do are not immediate answers to political or societal problems and we don’t normally have enough time to think about the best way to bring about change in the long-term - strategies which provide sustainable solutions.

In the following articles, we aim to share best practice in thinking about and employing such strategies, whether it’s the best way to get access to schools or how to work with the United Nations. Our contributors explain how to develop tactics to reach goals like these and reveal their personal experience of problems and successes in the real world.

We hope that this magazine encourages you to think carefully about your own personal or organisational strategies, and helps you see strategies as an effective tool for achieving a clear goal.

Enjoy the reading!

The IGLYO board,
Björn, Bruno, Darren, Fabio and Lucy

& Daniel Winstanley,
co-editor of the magazine
