Ovierview
In response to Manifesto made by Mobeedick.com, less than three weeks before the elections to the Sejm and Senate, several UX and UI experts from various companies, united by a common cause – using our skills and a desire to examine "how" politicians communicate with us.
From September 21-27, 2023, we conducted audit of the electoral programs of five electoral committees: KKW Trzecia Droga Polska 2050 Szymon Hołownia – Polish People's Party, KW Nowa Lewica, KW Law and Justice, KW Confederation Freedom and Independence, and KKW Civic Coalition PO .N IPL Greens.
Process
We got divided into five teams, each assigned to a different political party. We immediately began our collaborative work in FigJam. Our analysis was focused on specific categories: language, accessibility, information architecture, and aesthetics. Afterward, we consolidated our findings into a general sketch, which we then transferred to Airtable to record more detailed conclusions including mainly observations, categories, descriptions, recommendations, and priorities.
Research Objectives
1. Analyse political party materials from an expert (designer's) perspective.
2. Evaluate the programs of electoral committees in relation to market standards for creating graphical interfaces.
3. Better understand the language and other forms of communication used by political parties.
4. Better prepare ourselves – designers and others – for the upcoming elections.
5. Engage in creating a better, more substantive public debate.
6. Encourage as many people as possible to participate in the upcoming elections.
