Influencers for Democracy Opportunities

Published May 14, 2021

Advancing democracy involves changing the communities we live in. However, how do we make that happen? To start creating change we need to talk about it. If you want to improve your social media skills so that your message can reach a bigger audience and leave a lasting impact, you might want to join Influencers for Democracy. Our Influencers for Democracy teamed up with Magacin Kabare, a filmmaker collective in the Western Balkans, who also produced EDYN’s documentary, The Change We Seek.

Influencers for Democracy is an opportunity for EDYN members to take part in a skills-building virtual conference series and receive a follow-up one-on-one mentorship to enhance your social media presence and take your goals further online.

Together with your fellow EDYN members, you can start producing a series of content showing that:

  • Youth AREN’T apathetic about the state of democracy;
  • Participating in democratic processes is NOT exclusively reserved for elites;
  • Youth are an ESSENTIAL part of the solution to democracy’s public confidence problem.
