Survey
Indigenous and Women's Attitudes Toward Elections (2002) (Spanish)
En los últimos años los sistemas políticos han sido testigos de importantes reformas en sus sistemas y procedimientos electorales, las que persiguen la profundización de la democracia, por la vía de promover la universalidad y el libre acceso al voto. El Ecuador está en esta línea, pero sus peculiares condiciones sociales, culturales y políticas, todavía ocasionan distorsiones en la expresión democrática. La composición étnica del país es uno de los factores más importantes de diferenciación social a su interior. La incorporación de los indígenas a la vida política formal es relativamente reciente, y su participación ha ido incrementándose hasta llegar a niveles de alta influencia en la ocupación de cargos públicos y la formación de alianzas de poder.

Voter Education: Curriculum Methodologies
“Voter Education: Curriculum Methodologies,” published in 1999, is a booklet that explains the role of the Electoral Commission of Kenya in voter education. The Electoral Commision was focused on revamping the electoral process in Kenya and enhancing civic participation in the increasingly pluralistic Kenyan political process. This was particularly important as Kenya had been under virtual one party rule from 1969 until the early 1990s.
