Protect Our Democracy
Protect Our Democracy is one of Ground Work Collective’s key programs, working to support free, fair, and transparent elections in South Africa.
In 2024, we trained over 3,000 independent observers to monitor the national and provincial elections. The program plays a crucial role in breaking down barriers to voting and building trust in our democracy by helping to ensure transparency, accountability, and fairness at the polls. Ground Work Collective uses a first-of-its-kind App available both on- and offline, which can be used by anybody, whether literate or not, and importantly, in all South African languages.
These observers are often young people seeing democracy in action for the first time, and stepping into it.
Protect Our Democracy
empowers young people to actively engage in democracy as election observers, giving them a first-hand understanding of democratic processes, which helps them get and understanding of our democracy and why voting is important.
South Africans can simply visit our website on www.groundworkcollective.org or send us an email at info@groundworkcollective.org to get more information on how to register and join our observers’ program.
