Encourage Youths and Women Participation in Electoral Processes
Although young and women are drivers of change and engaged in socio-political movements, formal politics is still largely a domain of people over the age of 35 and men, with youth and women remaining underrepresented. Evidence shows that young people are less likely to participate in formal political processes than older generations. Voter turnout among youth aged 18 to 25 and women continues to be lower than other age groups and they are less likely to join political parties. reasons for their underrepresentation vary. They include lack of knowledge,
interest, or trust as well as flaws in the political process itself that make it hard for young and women to participate in an effective and meaningful way.
We aim to share the necessary information that will inform, inspire, encourage and motivate them to participate in the electoral process.
