Election Management Bodies
Election Management Bodies (EMBs) are organizations responsible for overseeing the electoral process in a country. Their main duties include organizing elections, ensuring they are fair and transparent, and managing the logistics involved, such as voter registration and ballot counting. EMBs help maintain the integrity of the electoral system and promote public confidence in the democratic process.
These bodies can vary in structure and function depending on the country. Some EMBs are independent agencies, while others may operate under government oversight. They often collaborate with various stakeholders, including political parties, civil society, and international observers, to ensure that elections are conducted smoothly and equitably.
