Only 18,6% of immigrants used their right to vote in the last municipal elections. We want to change that! Remember: you are eligible to vote after 3 years of registered legal domicile in Iceland.
W.O.M.E.N. sem kjósa / W.O.M.E.N. who vote is a migrant women-led project – supported by Kvenréttindafélag Íslands – that aims at sharing information about city elections all over the country, facilitating spaces of discussion, and empowering women and all voters of foreign background to make an informed choice on the 16th of May 2026.
We are feminists. We are migrants. We are city residents. We do not support a specific political party. We support your vote.
