CandiDater
For the 2018 presidential elections in Colombia, the app CandiDater was launched to provide the youth with information about the candidates' proposals on previously selected topics in an interactive way to allow them to select which ones they agreed with and then showed them which candidate was the best match. The app was launched by Vice in cooperation with the Embassy of Germany in Colombia. To choose the topics, 18 young people from all over Colombia were selected and then drafted 27 topics they wanted to ask candidates about. Later on presidential candidates were interviewed and the app was launched.
