The study aimed to familiarize itself with the role of communication activities in public relations in a randomly selected group through an online questionnaire to learn to increase awareness of political participation. The study relied on the classification of the framework of descriptive studies on the survey curriculum by distributing its 314-strong electronic questionnaire.
The scholarly confidence in the economic activities used came from public relations in political bodies to a moderate degree; the face of social media sites in the introduction regarding reliance on them in political consciousness. The study's appearance modestly plays the role of communication activities used by public relations to increase awareness of political participation. The concluston of the study shows that cognitive, conscientious, and behavioral influences on communication activities greatly influence the degree of awareness of political participation.
