Its indeed hopeful to see increased voter engagement. However, there is still a declining trust in institutions across the globe. New ways of participating are being experimented with: tools like Nexus Politics, a digital democracy platform, try new ways of facilitating direct engagement with politicians and aim restoring trust in the system. Do you guys think these kind of tools can be effective? #Democracy #Civicengagement #Nexuspolitics #Participation #Politics #Democracy #Representation

Seeing increased voter engagement, especially among youth, reminds me that democracy thrives when we all participate. ๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ๐ŸŒŸ #Democracy #CivicEngagement #Hope
