Antecedentes
Following the success of the Constituent Assembly (CA) election in 2008, UNDP Nepal launched an Electoral Support Project (ESP) in August 2008 to provide technical assistance to the Election Commission of Nepal (ECN) for the inter-elections period (2008-2016). The ESP support aims at building sustainable and enduring institutional and professional capacity of the ECN, of its Secretariat and its district offices that could be easily and effectively deployed in future elections. The ESP (2008-2016) consists of two phases. Phase I (2008-2012) focused exclusively on long-term electoral capacity building. Phase II (2012-2016) focuses on capacity building of the ECN officials and operational support for future electoral cycles.
The major areas of ESP support activities to the ECN include- strategic planning for the electoral cycle; staff retention and professional development; GIS and electoral mapping system; creation and display of new voter registration; training and procedure; election operations and logistics; election dispute resolution; electoral security; establishment and operation of the Electoral Information and Education Centre; public outreach and voter information/education; and gender and social inclusion.
