The 2009 West African Regional Conference on Smart, Appropriate and Resource Efficient Technologies and Products for Rural Communities, to be held in Abuja, Nigeria includes efforts to ramp up dialogue with, and among rural communities towards political participation. We invite your comments regarding democracy and political activities in your rural community:
- What leadership attributes do people in your rural community value?
- How do people in your rural community access news and information about political developments locally and nationally?
- During elections, does voter education in your rural setting foster the understanding of issues that affect your life?
Please send us your comments and questions to: info@democracy-africa.org.
