The Right to Information Center develops young people’s engagement with legislative processes, increasing their awareness on laws and policies in Mchinji and its application to their daily lives. ‘What Does Your Vote Want?’ is a non-political, non-partisan project both initiated and run by young people with aim of sensitizing young voters, by giving them relevant and necessary information regarding the Malawi Electoral System leading up to the 2019 General Elections, the project would like to successfully reach more than 40000 young people.
As a part of the project, young people trained as peer educators to conduct open forum workshops, panel discussions, ‘meet your leader’ accountability sessions and organize other methods of community advocacy, focusing on governance, where a key focus is the RTI and its application in Mchinji.
