MyRepresentative is a transformative project that empowers South African citizens to actively participate in electoral and democratic processes throughout the election cycle.
By harnessing innovative and accessible data tools, as well as bolstering civil society's advocacy efforts, MyRepresentative aims to bridge the information gap and foster meaningful civic engagement.
The platform consists of two integral components: MyCandidate and MyCouncillor.
Together, MyCandidate and MyCouncillor empower citizens to choose leadership from an informed position.
Our vision goes beyond elections, encouraging citizens to engage with politics and democracy not only during electoral cycles but also in between. By providing accessible information, MyRepresentative seeks to stimulate active participation in civic matters such as service delivery, urban development, and other critical aspects of public life. We aim to foster a culture of informed civic involvement, ensuring that elected officials are engaged on their promises and policies.
At its core, MyRepresentative tackles voter disempowerment in South Africa by providing citizens with vital information. We aim to foster inclusivity and bridge gaps in civic engagement. Our mission is to empower citizens with the tools they need to shape their democracy and advocate for positive change.
Join us in this movement to strengthen democracy, ensuring accountability, and building a brighter future for South Africa. Together, we can drive lasting impact and promote a society where every voice matters.
