Sawti’s
Mission

Sawti serves to inform Lebanese everywhere that if we want Lebanon to change, we need to start by participating and voting for new, non-sectarian members of parliament.

In the 2018 election, millions of Lebanese either did not vote, did not know they could vote from abroad, or were unaware that an alternative exists.

The Team
Behind Sawti

Sawti was created by a group of young Lebanese volunteers who met at Impact Lebanon and come from diverse fields of law, science, engineering, policy, psychology and media.

Everyone behind Sawti works on a fully voluntary basis, no-one is a member or associated to any political party in Lebanon.
