CHALLENGE
Through a social media campaign demystify how government works. Educate and empower communities to be more informed, responsible, and effective citizens.
RESULTS
Frances Yllana, Karen Kurycki, and I collaboratively outlined the 100-day design challenge into four quarters with 25 prompts each: Local, State, National levels of government, and Voting information. Together we recruited 60 creatives to participate in this challenge.
The #100DaysofDemocracy project was a success in educating the public about civic participation in a more accessible way. We will be seeking to continue this type of inclusive education on government in the future.
