Labor leaders of Mindanao to watch for poll fraud.
Workers and trade unionists in southern Mindanao are set to launch their own poll watch project on April 17, 10:00 am at Paterno’s Restaurant, Aurora Quezon City, Davao City.
WE Watch (Workers Electoral Watch) is a project spearheaded by the Ecumenical Institute for Labor Education and Research (EILER) with support from the European Union. It was launched in Manila in February.
About 30 labor leaders are expected to grace the WE Watch launch in Davao City.
WE Watch aims to provide workers with basic knowledge about the Automated Election System (AES) and to train them to join an SMS-based mechanism for monitoring electoral fraud.
