IFES Works in Uganda Ahead of 2011 Polls

May 13, 2010

IFES will begin working in Uganda in early June. One of the main projects IFES will be working on is the voter registration process. As this process will already be well underway by the time IFES arrives in Uganda, our technical experts will work with the Electoral Commission (EC) to develop high-level mechanisms through which voters can verify their registration information, including a web-based voter register and an SMS registration verification system.
