Knowledge and practical skills of the Electoral Administration of the Republic of Moldova have been further strengthened following a 2-day training on Capacities of the Central Electoral Commission and district electoral councils on the supervision and control of political parties financing.
Over 45 electoral officials from the Central Electoral Commission (CEC), in particular staff from the “Division of Supervision and Control on Financing Political Parties and Electoral Campaigns”, as well as chairpersons of District Electoral Councils from the entire country, benefited from the expertise and knowledge of the trainers from both the Council of Europe and the CEC who focused on oversight of the financing electoral campaign in view of the 5th November 2023 General Local Elections.
One of main objectives was to elaborate on proposed adjustments to the two main CEC guidelines: “Methodology on oversight and control of financing political parties” and “Methodology on oversight and control of financing initiative groups and electoral campaigns “ which were developed in 2022 with the support of the Council of Europe.
The event was organised in the framework of the Council of Europe Project Improving Electoral Practice in the Republic of Moldova, Phase III, in partnership with the Central Electoral Commission of the Republic of Moldova.
