Mae’r prosiect hwn yn archwilio buddion gwirfoddoli mewn perthynas â gwella ymgysylltiad gwleidyddol ymhlith pobl ifanc yn y DU. Pleidleisio yw’r ffordd bwysicaf a mwyaf cyffredin o gymryd rhan yn wleidyddol mewn democratiaeth, ond eto gwelir amharodrwydd digynsail ymhlith pleidleiswyr ifanc heddiw i fynd i’r blwch pleidleisio.
