The ELECT project strengthens the ability of the Afghan government to conduct free and fair elections through support for civic and voter education, media development, development of operational and logistical systems, election observation, and support for political party development. These activities will ensure credible, secure, and inclusive elections processes where all candidates have fair access to media, travel and the ability to campaign. Ultimately, USAID will help the Afghan government hold free and fair elections with results that are broadly accepted after election day. This will all be achieved through a more effective Independent Elections Commission.
