Voting issues - explained very simply
The Youth Service of the Organisation of the Swiss Abroad (OSA), SwissCommunity, organises webinars on voting issues to promote the exercise of political rights abroad and to encourage the Swiss Abroad to take part in voting.
In this new series of webinars organised with our partner easyvote, political information, which can sometimes seem complex, will be explained in a simple, accessible and neutral way for each vote. This should help make Swiss politics understandable to everyone, whatever their age or level of political knowledge.
Easyvote is primarily aimed at young people aged 18 to 25, but this webinar is for everyone, regardless of age. Thanks to its educational and accessible approach, easyvote enables everyone to familiarise themselves with current political issues, without getting bogged down in complicated terms or party-political arguments.
Webinar dates:
- 14 January 2025
- 12 April 2025
Available in French or German
The webinar is published here on the day at 4 p.m. (Swiss time).
The webinar will be recorded and is available on the OSA website up until two weeks after the vote. If you have any questions about the webinar, please email info@easyvote.ch or info@swisscommunity.org.
What is easyvote?
The aim of easyvote is to motivate young people between the ages of 18 and 25, but also older people, to take an interest in politics. By informing them about political issues and processes it hopes to encourage people to vote. Easyvote provides information on votes, elections and current political issues. In addition, easyvote-school promotes a culture of discussion and thus contributes to the political education of all. To find out more about easyvote, and access videos or flyers, visit the website: www.easyvote.ch.
The easyvote services are produced with the help of 190 volunteers. Easyvote is a project of the Swiss Federation of Youth Parliaments (FSPJ)
