Many voices
Project description
The aim of the project is to create a website in connection with the Swedish parlament elections 2010. The target end user group of the site is youth, 18-25 years old.
The website content will partly be powered by a mobile editorial board, filtering and tagging the news and information that will appear on the site.
Another important part of the service is the board of editors who are in charge of answering questions from the visitors to the site.
An overarching purpose is to promote a deeper political engagement and a broader view of the political questions.
Why does it matter
A common problem with information about politics is that it is not targeted at the right user groups, and also that it tends to get polarized towards a limited political viewpoint. This project will address these problems.

Results
The project will function as a platform to test out current mobile technology already developed at CeLeKT, but also to show from the end user perspective what can be done to improve political conversation on the Internet.
