Production of multi-media material on voter education
Background
The Lebanese Association for Democratic Elections (LADE) was founded in Lebanon by a number of activists in the public sector on March 13, 1996. LADE is a civil, independent and nonprofit organization specialized in elections and how closely they are linked to democracy.
The association is concerned with monitoring the elections in their different forms as well as studying the electoral systems and laws according to the international democratic electoral standards, especially standards that guarantee free, fair and transparent elections.
Overall Objective
After several years of struggling for a new electoral law, Lebanon has finally adopted the proportional system for the first time in the Lebanese elections’ history following three consecutive rounds of mandate extension for the Lebanese Parliament. In this regard, LADE launched a voters’ education program, in order to inform and communicate to the voters the new electoral law and explain its main features to the general public. Voters need to understand and be aware of their political rights under the new electoral law, so they can responsibly fulfill their obligations without any pressure exercised by any party or entity. The voter education program serves to clarify all the questions raised by voters prior to the election day through different on-ground activities accompanied with informative multi-media material to better understanding and awareness.
