CandiDatos.gt
CandiDatos.gt is a web platform developed by a group of civil society organizations and international organizations in order to make more transparent the electoral proposals of political parties, improve their interaction with citizens and to better promote an informed vote. It allows citizens to compare candidates' proposals, in addition to raising questions. The platform serves as a means of communication between society and political parties, as it sends the questions to the candidate and publishes their responses online.
