The Peace and Security Research Department convened a team of experts to review the Election Observation Course (EOC) curriculum and rationale for review.

EOC is one of the fundamental courses on conflict prevention offered at the Peace and Conflict Studies School. The complex nature within which elections are conducted in transitionary or post-conflict context makes election observation a critical tool in realizing credible, transparent, and inclusive electoral processes. 

Elections are conducted in a democratic environment conducive for participation by all interest groups i.e. women, ethnic minorities, the youth. As a result, pre-election observation is a crucial part as it highlights current issues ahead of an election. The election cycle requires rigorous reporting in all stages i.e. pre-election, election, and post-election.

The process is aimed at enhancing election observation for international observers and domestic observers and actors earmarked for election observation in Eastern Africa.

The objectives of the Curriculum Review Board are to; review aim, scope, and target audience, review learning outcomes, and module specifications, integrate gender perspectives in the course content and methodology and revise the course program.
