Between 12th and 20th June 2017, CEEC conducted a Sauti Mtaani induction of 92 youth under the project “Youth and Governance: Enhancing Youth Participation in 2017 General Elections through the Sauti Mtaani Platform within Nairobi County”. The aim was to help the youth understand how Sauti Mtaani platform works and become ambassadors who would popularize it among their peers. Sauti Mtaani is a web based platform that facilitates engagement between youth and their leaders at the ward level. This phase had 22 participating wards in Nairobi County namely Landimawe, Komarock, Viwandani, Mutuini, Eastleigh South, Eastleigh North, Kangemi, Dandora I, Dandora II, Dandora III, California, Imara Daima, Laini Saba, Kariobangi North, Ziwani/Kariokor, Airbase and Kilimani. The ambassadors appreciated the fact that the platform provided a free and easy access to the aspirants. They were happy that they were now able to engage the aspirants on pertinent issues thus helping them make informed choices at the ballot.
