The Political Parties Commission (PPC), through the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties (ORPP), has been actively implementing a Nation-Wide civic awareness initiatives in Solomon Islands since its first establishement. This campaign has played a pivitol role in the Commission’s mission to strengthen democratic values and promote informed political participation in Solomon Islands.

Since, 2018, the V4P campaigns has been rolled out in several provinces, including Western Province, Central Province, Malaita Province, Makira-Ulawa Province, Honiara City, and Choiseul Province. The campaign has reached communities, churches, and schools, emphasising the need to prioritize party policies over personalities, and fostering an understanding of the role of political parties in our democratic system.
