Elections are shaped not only by candidates and institutions, but also by the citizens who participate, the information they receive and share, and the realities they choose to document.
Y-VOTE gives young citizens practical tools to report what is happening in their communities, monitor elections, fact-check information, and contribute responsibly to public conversations. It empowers them to observe, verify, document and share what matters — helping build more informed citizens and more credible, transparent elections.
