The International Electoral Education Council (IEEC) is currently focusing on upcoming elections in several countries, including the June 14 elections in Iran. One of the programs being undertaken by the IEEC is the study of Iran’s Out of Country Voting (OCV) process. They have created documents to assist individuals and organizations interested in informal electoral observation at polling stations outside of Iran.
The Handbook for Iran and a Methodology and Checklist for observation prepared by the IEEC in both English and Persian.
In late May, the IEEC will set up an informational call to assist organizations and individuals who wish to observe Iran’s out of country electoral process.
