Challenge

Germany faces a particular challenge in the autumn of the 2024 elections: increasing polarization and the growing influence of right-wing parties threaten social cohesion. In the midst of heated debates and division, we want to set an example with the DEMO-MAT - for unity, diversity and a love of democracy. Because it is the foundation of our society and must be actively protected and defended. Our mission: to encourage people to actively stand up for democratic values and stimulate debate.

Website

Democracy? We can shuffle that! On DEMO-MAT.de, users can playfully create inspiring political messages and broadcast them directly to the world as social media posts or posters. The shuffle function makes it possible to combine unique messages from a variety of claims. Apparent contradictions are overcome by common democratic values. The website offers a creative platform to promote political participation and engagement - in a playful way, but with a clear message for social cohesion.

Building a community

“Just” voting is no longer enough - it's time to get active! With the DEMO-MAT, users can create and share their own messages as posters or social media posts. The goal: to build the largest movement for democracy and against the right in Germany. Together, we are sending a clear signal for an open, fair society and strengthening democracy! Do you have another topic close to your heart?

With the white label option of the IMPACT-O-MAT website, you can use the same functionality for your company and spread your message individually and creatively.

The generated messages can be downloaded in various formats and then easily shared on social media.
