Observations on 2024
Carter Center pilot projects followed international best practices
By Rokey Suleman and Sarah Cooper
The Carter Center
Elections are the cornerstones of functioning democracies. For decades, The Carter Center has been at the forefront of a global community of practice that supports nonpartisan election observation as a means of building public trust and confidence in well-administered elections. In 1989, former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford traveled to Panama to jointly lead the first international election observation mission ever funded by the National Endowment for Democracy, a nonprofit created under President Ronald Reagan’s administration to support free and fair elections around the world. Since that time, The Carter Center has observed 125 elections in 40 countries and three Native American nations. It has also worked with other international organizations to develop norms and standards for assessing the quality of elections around the world.
