We work to promote free and fair elections not only as a fundamental right but also to provide an opportunity to advance democratization. We work with independent, non-partisan, and identifiable organizations, both state and non-state actors, including Election Management Bodies (EMBs), political parties, civil society, media, and governments, to promote free, fair, and peaceful elections within the subregion. We do this through initiatives such as capacity building, networking, experience sharing, electoral reforms, and citizen-led election observation.

We strive to see a West Africa that is democratic, where governments are held accountable through regular competitive elections and citizens effectively participate in the electoral process.
