UNDP, Comelec partner anew for electoral digitalization

Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairperson George Erwin Garcia and United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in the Philippines Resident Representative Selva Ramachandran signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen the partnership for electoral inclusion and digitalization.

Through this MoU, the UNDP will support the Comelec as it further strengthens its digitalization capacity to ensure that it can develop data-driven and online solutions that can help promote inclusive political participation, including gender equality, in political processes.
