Voter Information Network and Education – Africa (VINE – Africa) is a non-profit and non-partisan civil society organization registered in Kenya that focuses on governance.
The 2010 constitution of Kenya mandates the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to conduct and supervise Voter Education.
It is on this note that the commission is mandated to partner with other Civic Education Providers such as VINE -AFRICA to fulfill this mission.
As such we are accredited by the IEBC as a Voter Education Provider. In order to inform better the delivery of voter education, VINE -AFRICA also gets accreditation by the IEBC and undertakes monitoring/ observation of electoral activities. Among others, 2016 Mass Voter Registration exercise, 2017 general elections, 2022 Mass Voter Registration exercise, 2022 IEBC Youth Voter Education project, IEBC Annual Voter Education Week (AVEW) and 2022 general elections.
Public Participation is a governance principle that is greatly emphasized by the constitution of Kenya 2010.
We continuously work with individuals, groups and organizations towards strengthening citizen participation in various fora such as Elimu Yetu Coalition (EYC), Annual People’s Dialogue Festival (PDF) by the Center for Multiparty Democracy (CMD) and constituency based VINE -AFRICA Youth Leagues among others.
