    Why your support is important, now more than ever!

    In a time where the very foundations of democracy are gradually being eroded by the rise of extreme nationalism, alt-right movements, the spread of disinformation and corporate capture, the efforts of organisations such as Vouliwatch are more relevant than ever.

    We rely on the generosity of each and every one of you to continue with our efforts for more transparency and accountability in the Greek political system. If you appreciate our work and wish to secure the sustainability of Vouliwatch, you can help by making a small donation.

    By financially supporting Vouliwatch you support our litigation strategy, our campaigns for transparency and accountability in the political system, the development of new civic tech tools, our research projects and last but not least our impartial and accurate reporting of parliamentary news in an era rife with disinformation and partisan news outlets.
