Provision of election materials and education for persons with disability begins

Disability and Gender Inclusion are among the major activities that the National Electoral Board of Ethiopia has been focusing on since its re-establishment. To help increase the reach of the electoral law to the blind, the board begun handing out braille publications to civil society organizations that provide voter education to persons with disability and observe the election. In addition to the braille, the board has begun issuing badges that would allow civil society observers have a legal recognition at polling stations.
