OneVote

The mission of one-vote.at is to strengthen democratic culture in Austria at its core: young people's first, formative voting experience. A fundamental principle is that democracy is not just a theoretical construct found in textbooks, but must be a practical, lived experience. The annual school council election represents the next generation's crucial first point of contact with the mechanisms of representation, participation, and co-determination.
