Who We Are
ElectHER is a party-agnostic organization committed to increasing women political inclusion across Africa through Behavioural Change Communications, Community Building, Capacity Development, and increased access to Social, Human, Technological and Financial Capital.
We advocate for inclusive policies to enable equity in political governance
Our mandate entails fostering constructive discussions with various stakeholders (electorate, political parties, media etc), around the issues hamstringing women in politics and how best to solve them through polices and legislation.
We are democratizing politics by Engaging, Encouraging, Equipping and Enabling women to Decide Run and Win elections
From male allyship and wider stakeholder engagements, creating platforms for women to Decide to Run, building capacity and de-risking the process of running for office through finance and technology; we are revolutionizing women’s political across Africa.
Through Tech Innovation, we are disrupting the women’s movement across Africa
Ahead of the 2023 elections in Nigeria, through civic technology, our goal is to refine how elections are monitored, increase access to public data, enable increased accountability and visibility for elected female officials, and build communities across borders.

Our Core Programs
Our mission is to address the under-representation of women, by democratising politics for women to Decide, Run and Win elections across in Africa.
