Until now, there has been no platform that systematically teaches "practical techniques for winning elections" from a non-partisan perspective, free from specific political affiliations.
This academy is a practical program primarily targeting new candidates challenging municipal and ward assembly elections, as well as incumbent councilors who wish to reorganize their election strategies.
