One of Egypt’s oldest parties, the Democratic Front Party, will also participate in the debate, and will be represented by Osama Ghazali Harb, writer Skoaina Fouad, and Mohamed Nosseir.

Mohamed Ghonim, founder of the movement organizing the debates, said they aim to inform the public about the important secular parties, the main differences between them, how they aim to form a united front to protect civil rights, and the main strategies for their upcoming election campaigns, including which constituencies they plan to nominate candidates for, the number of founders of each party, geographical areas each party will target, etc.

Ghonim added that several civil society organizations
would be taking part in the debates, including Enlightened Egypt, Citizen Militias for the protection of Alexandria and many others.

The four parties participating in the debates were chosen by popular vote at a symposium of political parties and civil society organizations last month.
