Museum of Democracy inaugurated in Tunis

The Museum of Democracy is a mobile museum which provides civic and electoral information to citizens using new technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), ISIE President Nabil Baffoun said in a statement to the press.

The museum also offers a better insight into confusing terminologies such as the principles of democracy, elections and the transfer of power process, Baffoun added. The mobile museum, inaugurated Tuesday at the headquarters of ISIE Tunis 1 will be open to the public from Tuesday, February 23. It offers citizens a better understanding of the concept of State institutions, deepens their knowledge about their political and civil rights and encourages participation in public life and elections through the simulation of a 3D electoral operation.

The museum is also accessible to deaf and hearing-impaired people. During their visit, they are provided with a sign language interpretation. The museum is also open to the visually impaired or blind people, the illiterate and those with learning disabilities by offering them reading technology screens.
