Social Media Management
Location:
London, Gt Lon
Description:
DemocraFest - Social Media Managers We're organizing Britain's first democracy festival, DemocraFest, which aims to make young people more politically engaged. You can find out more about DemocraFest here: https://www.democrafest.co.uk. Where do young people go to engage in politics currently in the UK? The only venue for political engagement is party conferences which are party political, intimidating, often dull and generally aimed at an older audience. We want to build a forum for political debate outside of Westminster and make politics fun to a younger audience by focusing on the key issues affecting young people in the UK in a relaxed festival-style atmosphere with music and local food. We took inspiration from a wave of democracy festivals in Scandinavian countries which have been really successful at making people more engaged and excited about politics. We have speakers lined up from each of the main political parties, celebrities and experts in different fields, podcasters, comedians, and musicians. DemocraFest aims to achieve three things: (1) Make 18 to 35-year-olds more socially and politically engaged. (2) Engage with views across the spectrum, especially if you don’t agree with them. (3) Show that debating and politics can be fun. DemocraFest will bring these values alive and open the door onto a new era of political and social discourse. Watch this space.
