On September 26th, Germany will see one of its most significant elections since reunification, as the countable era of Angela Merkel comes to an end. This could signal big change for Germans and internationals alike, making understanding the process and voting when you can, absolutely critical.

Elections, voting and German bureaucracy can be intimidating and overwhelming but we’re here to guide you through it. Joined by journalists on the forefront of German election coverage, we will be leaning on their expert knowledge to answer some of our most pressing questions like “How do I vote”, “Why should I care”, “Who will replace Merkel”, and “What is a coalition government”?

No matter your political leanings, or if you can vote or not, this is the time to pay attention, because change is coming.
