IFES - International Foundation for Electoral Systems

Purpose

This capacity-building project will build on the successes of earlier work and incorporate important recommendations following the 2015 elections which emphasized empowering traditionally marginalized groups to become engaged in the political process by enhancing the information available in ethnic languages, fostering intersectional engagement between women, youth, ethnic minorities and persons with disabilities and developing targeted civic and voter education. The project will work with local partner groups to leverage opportunities for engagement with voters in non-traditional spaces
