Support to International Election Observers
Support to Creating a Conducive Environment
In peace operations or special political missions, as well as in non-mission settings, UN entities may use their good offices, advocacy or human rights expertise to help foster conditions for credible elections.
Technical Assistance
Technical assistance is the most common form of support, offering legal, operational, and logistical guidance to strengthen electoral laws, institutions, and processes. This assistance can be provided for a short period or span across multiple electoral cycles, depending on the needs of the country or institution.
Support to International Election Observers
Operational support or coordination of international observers - without an observation role for the UN itself.
Electoral Roles Requiring a Mandate
Organization, supervision, certification, or observation of elections. Extremely rare, requires a Security Council or General Assembly mandate.
Panels of Experts
Deployment of small expert teams or high-level panels to assess electoral processes and report to the Secretary-General or the focal point for electoral assistance.
