The first quarter of the project focused on the social media campaign, which is one of the alternative activities related to the third goal to raise citizens’ awareness of elections and the role of democracy.
In addition, the knowledge guide concerned with the concept of democracy in theory and practice and democratic transformation in Libya has been prepared, and the information in the guide will be transferred to online training on the Mocs platform, and 100 people from all regions of Libya will be trained.
Also among the achievements of the project is a campaign “w enta shen rayak?” in cooperation with three Libyan organizations from all over Libya by holding dialogue sessions with unified titles to discuss issues of interest to the current political situation and to come up with recommendations for stakeholders.
It is important for citizens to be familiar with the concept of democracy and how it is applied to the Libyan context, to be present in a positive and interactive manner, and to have some good knowledge of the terms that define democracy.
