Instruction manual

Take part in the elections if you are a citizen of the Russian Federation. Before you go to the polling station, study the legislation on elections and participation in them in order to be able not only to declare your right to choose, but also to be able to defend it.
2
Respond to the call to come to the rally of those political forces and public associations that you sympathize with.

Join a political party or public organization whose manifestos are identical to your civic position. By becoming a participant, initiator or ideologist of one of these organizations, you can make your contribution to upholding your beliefs: to develop political strategies, engage in feasible work at the party headquarters or become an activist in working with voters. As a rule, the tasks that fall on the shoulders of a newly joined member of an association depend on his social status, education, age and initiative. So, young people should defend their citizenship in the youth departments of large parties. And for more mature citizens with a strong civic stand, parties and social movements will be delighted.

Hold a single picket if you could not find like-minded people among the active movements. The law provides for the right of every citizen of the Russian Federation to hold single pickets without the permission of local authorities. At a single picket, you can distribute your own printed materials, collect signatures, and even campaign on citizens for their beliefs. Before the picket, as a rule, the residents of the village are informed about its conduct. This can be done using the media or your own blog, a page on the Internet, a profile on a social network.

Organize your own rally. According to the law, a rally can be initiated not only by political or public associations, but also by an initiative group of citizens. Submit an application to the local authority and after its approval, start informing the population.
