The CEC holds its regular meeting with young women and people of Roma community in Rrapisht in Elbasan

The meeting took place in the form of a dialogue, during which Roma women and young people shared their experiences on their participation in the past elections. The representatives of CEC answered their questions on various aspects of the election process with specific examples, information in their own language, as well as by simulating the process of voting and vote counting. The simulation of the voting and counting process served as an efficient way to inform and make the participants aware of the steps they should follow in the voting center and regarding the correct way of marking the ballot.

The meeting took place in the framework of the joint project with the British Government for information, awareness and education of the Roma community for the local elections of May 14, 2023 in Albania.

The partners in the implementation of this project are also representatives of the Roma minority organizations in our country, “Voice of the Roma in Albania “and the “Institute of Roma Culture” in Albania.
