About Manifesto

DISCLAIMER: Manifesto is an independent, privately owned civic platform. It is NOT
affiliated with, endorsed by, or representing the Government of Kenya, the Independent
Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), Parliament, any county government, or any
political party. Manifesto does not provide or facilitate any government service.

Manifesto is a modern civic debate and social platform for Kenyan citizens to follow
their elected leaders, discuss policy, and hold public office to account. It combines
the interactive loops of modern social media with structured, accessible transparency.

KEY FEATURES

1. THE HUSTINGS FEED
Scroll through real-time updates, debate clips, and national policy discussions. Join the
discussion, share, and express your opinions on governance.

2. INTERACTIVE MANIFESTOS
Manifestos are no longer dusty PDF files. Browse political manifestos as interactive data
nodes. Upvote specific pillars (e.g. Economy, Education, Health), request details, and
read inline annotations from verified experts. Manifesto content is authored and
published by politicians and users themselves — it is opinion and campaign material, not
a government statement.

3. LIVE CIVIC TOWN HALLS
Watch live video broadcasts and participate in interactive town halls. Engage in
real-time chats, react with emojis, and ask questions directly to political leaders and
policymakers while they are live.

4. POLITICIANS DIRECTORY & MAP
Locate your representatives on the map and view their public profile card: policy focus,
term records, public debates attended, and political party affiliations.

5. SAFETY & RESPECT (UGC COMPLIANT)
We foster respectful political discourse. Users can instantly flag content, report
harassment, and block toxic profiles. Reports are moderated 24/7 to maintain a clean
community environment.
