23<b>What is the Campaign Network?</b><br>
24The campaign network of support for the Tobin Tax is growing and evolving.
25Many organizations have signed on, with "planks" in longer platforms.<br>
26On the <u>local level</u>,we are encouraging core groups
27of activists to study, discuss and craft policy proposals.
28These are also excellent areas for original research and policy writting, especially for 
29academic professionals and graduate students in political science, law,economics and
30development policy.<br>
31
32On the <u>regional level</u>, advisory committees are forming to exchange policy
33approaches, increase awareness through their networks and educate policy makers.
34The <u>national</u> steps will lead to policy adoption as the movement grows. This is an effort
35that requires <u>international </u>movement building, with national, regional and local efforts 
36as described above. <br><br>
