El Mitin is a media specialized in politics aimed at young people in the Dominican Republic. It emerged to bring news, historical and analytical information about politics and public policies in a didactic, entertaining and untraditional way, to inspire participation.

He was born on July 9, 2019, months before the first simultaneous primary elections held in the Dominican Republic. 40.3% of registered voters that year were young people under 35 years old, avid consumers of digital media. However, the media that covered politics remained traditional. It is in this context that El Mitin arises, with the purpose of providing information about politics through digital media.
