'If nothing else has worked, try quotas' - what a pleasure to have had the opportunity to tap into the wisdom of @HelenClarkNZ in real life! Very much appreciated her strong messaging on #GenderEquality throughout the #OGP2018 including places where you least expected it #georgia

Reflecting on the discussion we facilitated earlier this week on political party finance & electoral reforms, & Montenegro’s progress towards EU accession #IBAR robust discussions w MPs, regulatory bodies and civil society focused on gaps in legislation and implementation

Covered political financing undermines democracy and can have illicit influence. #NDIMontenegro's stakeholder discussion aimed to address political party funding, campaign financing, and electoral reform to bolster election integrity and #EU accession priorities.

So humbled to have been part of this journey working with amazing women from @WomenEwla during these important national elections in Ethiopia and providing technical assistance while monitoring violence against women in elections #VAWE #elections #ethiopia

Prior to 🇪🇹#Ethiopia's 2021 elections, @NDI trained CSO partners @CecoeEth, @women_ewla & @ECDDEthiopia on how to analyze and present observation data and findings to external stakeholders, which better prepared the organizations’ election communications. bit.ly/3vNI5Ws



This is exciting as we’ve written up a little blurb about not so little effort from 2023 early parliamentary elections in Montenegro - @NDIMontenegro supported first ever systematic monitoring of accessibility of polling stations conducted by @Savez_slijepih in small & mighty 🇲🇪

During 🇲🇪#Montenegro's 2023 elections, Union of the Blind w/ @NDI support trained & deployed 50 observers to inspect the implementation of accessibility standards in polling stations, access routes, entrance areas, polling board operations & voting areas. bit.ly/4aqgzNa



Last week we engaged Ms. Maria Longi of Department of State as she visited Montenegro! We enjoyed the deep dive into opportunities & challenges Montenegro faces on the 🇪🇺 accession path and the ways that we’ve been supporting and continue to do so on this exciting journey 🇲🇪

What a vibrant meeting with Coordinator for U.S. Assistance to Europe, Eurasia & Cent. Asia Maria Longi! Together with IRI Montenegro, we discussed the democracy development aspects of Montenegro & its push for the full EU membership. We stand ready to support 🇲🇪 on this journey
