Three young democracy ambassadors are working ahead of the election in Tidaholm

Author: WUA RadarPublished: Updated: Reviewed:

Vida Modée, Oliver Persson and Ahmed Asayed work until election day with information about democracy and the election in Tidaholm, mainly for young and first-time voters. On August 22, they organize Pizza and Politics at the library, where young people can meet representatives of different parties and ask questions.

What happened?

The ambassadors' mission is to spread knowledge about democratic processes and the upcoming September election. They are planning several activities and hope to also visit Rudbecksgymnasiet. For information about upcoming events, the group has started an Instagram account. The municipality's article describes the work as being aimed particularly at people who are going to vote for the first time and who may feel uncertain both about the election procedure and about the political options.

Location

Tidaholm, Västra Götaland

Impact and significance

The Pizza and Politics evening gives young people the opportunity to ask questions directly to party representatives in a library environment. The source does not specify which parties are participating, how the conversation is moderated or whether pre-notification is required. The ambassadors say they want to reach as many young people as possible, but the article does not include a numerical target or any forecast for how the initiative might affect voter turnout.

Background

The project is a regional collaboration with the Västra Götaland region where libraries are used as meeting places for knowledge, dialogue and participation. The three ambassadors are 18, 18 and 19 respectively and are presented with their studies and community interests. WUA reproduces their names because they are voluntarily presented as public project representatives in the municipality's news, but does not use any additional personal data beyond what is relevant to the assignment.

Latest update

The activities continue until election day. The closest listed program item is Pizza and Politics on August 22 at the library. Later arrangements and possible school participation have not yet been finally reported. Young people who want to participate should check the municipality's website or the project's specified information channel for current times and conditions. This summary is based on the stated public source and describes the state of affairs when the WUA reviewed the material on 17 August 2026. It does not replace the authority, municipality or organizer's own practical information. If dates, times, conditions or execution have changed, the later information on the original page shall be used.
