Civic Influencers:
Pioneering Pro-Democracy Youth Engagement
Our Mission
To inspire young influencers and voters to shape democracy through bold action, informed strategy, and the fight against dis/misinformation.
The 2024 election has been dubbed the “Influencer Election,” highlighting a paradigm shift in how young voters engage with democracy.
Civic Influencers is at the forefront of this transformation, using digital strategies to reach young voters where they are—online. Traditional outreach methods have fallen short, especially in combating disinformation, making digital-first strategies essential.
As we move into 2025, Civic Influencers is doubling down on two priorities:
Combating Disinformation – We are equipping young voters with tools to recognize false narratives and providing shareable digital literacy resources. Collaboration is key—we're working with tech platforms, fact-checkers, and community leaders to debunk misinformation and ensure vulnerable groups have access to trusted sources.
Refining Pro-Democracy Messaging – Through AI, social media, and digital platforms, we are testing and optimizing messaging that resonates with young voters. By meeting them on their preferred channels, we create compelling content that drives voter engagement and strengthens democracy.
With 4 million young people turning 18 every year, the youth vote is only growing in power. In 2024, the presidential race was decided by just 2.3 million votes—proving that youth engagement can determine the future of elections.
As traditional media struggles to connect, our innovative, data-driven strategies ensure that pro-democracy campaigns reach, inspire, and mobilize this critical voting bloc.
