1.5billion eligible voters don’t vote. Millions more aren’t registered.
The biggest challenge in politics today isn’t persuasion, it’s participation. #IPE27 is a global platform to rethink campaigning to reclaim the #MissingVoter.

#PoliticalCampaigns are now more technologically sophisticated yet millions are still not registering to vote and millions who are registered are still not voting.
That is why #IPE27 addresses the Global Participation Gap to reclaim the #MissingVoter.
5-6 August 2027 #CapeTown
Globally, 1.5 billion eligible voters do not vote and millions remain unregistered despite being eligible. These #MissingVoters are the defining challenge confronting political systems. #IPE27 addresses the Global Participation Crisis.
Save the date: 5-6 August 2027, Cape Town
Globally, 1.5 billion registered voters do not participate electorally.
Most #politicalcampaigns concentrate on voters who are already participating.
At #IPE27, we are re-engineering tools to reclaim the missing voter and mitigate the crisis of declining voter turnout.
The most consequential political group today is the “missing voters”: eligible people who don’t register or don’t vote. Campaigns rarely understand or design for them.
#IPE27 asks: What campaign tools can we reengineer to reclaim the missing voter?
4–5 Aug 2027 | South Africa
#IPE27 asks whether campaigns will finally meet voters where they are.
The “missing voter” is someone eligible to vote but never registered, or registered to vote but doesn’t show up.
#IPE27 is about reclaiming the missing voter and improving #VoterTurnout
21-22 October 2027
IPE24 & IPE25 revealed campaigns are evolving, but participation isn’t.
At #IPE27, we focus on what must change in practice: how campaigns listen, prioritise, and engage voters who’ve tuned out.
We can close the global participation gap.

In political campaigns, communication does more than share information.
It shapes how people see themselves, how they see leaders, and how they perceive possible future outcomes and their own power to influence them.

Thinking of running as an independent candidate in Africa?
Here's what the data tells us :
1) Party identity remains strong across the continent.
2) Without a party structure or endorsement, your chances of success decline sharply.

Most voters make up their minds way before the campaign sprint.
Less than 30% decide in the final 60 days — mostly undecided voters still weighing their options. That’s why the best campaigns start early
#IPECampaignInsights#politics#campaigns
Global voter turnout has fallen from 80% in 1945 to around 60% in 2025 — signaling declining trust and engagement.
At the International Political Campaigns Expo (IPE), campaign professionals from across the globe come together to deliberate on strategies that can re-energise voter participation.

Political campaigns don’t win because of slogans — they win because people connect.
The strongest ones turn relationships into bridges, networks into supporters, and supporters into voters.
