With financial support from the European Union, the Project will contribute to improving the Armenian democratic process by fostering CSO coordinated oversight and monitoring for inclusive, gender-sensitive, transparent, free, and fair elections in 2021 both at local and national levels.
The Project will open new avenues for the substantive participation of disadvantaged groups of society in Armenian politics along the electoral cycle by relying on NGO oversight and evidence-based advocacy work.

- A strong policy and advocacy CSO network is facilitated for the joint monitoring of the Parliamentary and local level elections in Armenia during 2021 and the launching of follow-up advocacy initiatives on a multiparty basis.
- A strong evidence base is collected on women’s electoral behaviour to uphold reliable and feasible follow-up recommendations and policy proposals to address the core causes hindering women's political activism in the country.
- A comprehensive analysis of the electoral process is provided through short-term and long-term electoral observation by the Independent Observer Public Alliance to support the consolidation of democratization of electoral processes in Armenia.
- Participation of youth, with the focus on first-time voters, in elections and local and regional life is promoted. A permanent network of education professionals/ teachers is established that advocates the role of the voter and civic education for active and democratic citizenship.
