Liberians have celebrated more than fifteen years of peace since their civil war ended, transitioning from a country seeking stability to one focused on transformation. The National Democratic Institute (NDI) is supporting legislative structures and civil society organizations (CSOs) to address the issues that most greatly affect Liberians as the country heads into elections in 2023.

MONROVIA, Liberia – The National Democratic Institute (NDI) today released its statement of findings and recommendations from its pre-election assessment mission to Liberia’s presidential and legislative elections, scheduled for October 2017.

The National Democratic Institute (NDI) deployed an international delegation to Liberia from February 20 - 24, 2017. The purpose of the mission was to assess preparations for Liberia’s October 2017 elections, including the ongoing voter registration process, and to support Liberia’s efforts to conduct peaceful, credible polls.
