Grant Description

Electoral Legitimacy in Egypt through Communication and Transparency - Women and Youth (ELECT-WY) project.

ELECT-WY helped create an environment where Egyptian women and youth (18-35-years old) could effectively participate in the democratic process.

Operating in four underserved governorates, ELECT-WY built the capacity of local NGOs in voter education, message development, surveys and focus groups, and issues surrounding electoral integrity and security.

A key component was social media and public awareness campaigns to inform women and youth of their rights and responsibilities as voters.

Based on the wide use of social media in Egypt, Creative and its partners coupled new and traditional media to increase awareness and participation.
