NEC Headquarters, Monrovia, Liberia | 4 October 2026 — The National Elections Commission of Liberia (NEC-Liberia) is expected Monday, 5 October 2026 to launch a regional stakeholders’ consultations in Buchanan, Grand Bassa County, as part of efforts to develop its Civic and Voter Education (CVE) Strategy for 2026–2030.
The consultations, to be held in four regional cities, will provide an opportunity for participants to make inputs and recommendations toward the development of a comprehensive strategy aimed at strengthening civic and voter education across Liberia.
The consultations will be held under the theme:
'Building an Informed, Participatory, Inclusive and Engaged Citizenry for Sustainable Democracy.'
Through CVE, citizens are better positioned to understand their rights and responsibilities, participate meaningfully in democratic processes, and make informed decisions throughout the electoral cycle.
Meanwhile, the Buchanan consultation continues up to 6 October 2026, to be followed by consultations in:
Robertsport City — 8–9 October 2026
Gompa City — 19–20 October 2026
Harper City — 22–23 October 2026
The regional approach is intended to broaden participation in the development of the CVE strategy and ensure that recommendations from stakeholders and communities outside Montserrado are adequately reflected in the final strategy.
The consultations will bring together relevant stakeholders to discuss priorities, challenges, opportunities and approaches for strengthening civic and voter education over the 2026–2030 period.
The consultations form part of the NEC’s broader commitment to strengthening electoral democracy through effective civic and voter education.
The NEC is undertaking the initiative with support from development partners, including the European Union in Liberia, Government of Ireland.
