Document - Your Excellency Nasser Bourita, Minister of Foreign Affairs, African cooperation, and Moroccan expatriates,
Africa : Opening Remarks By His Execellency Ambassador Bankole Adeoye, Commissioner for Political Affairs, Peace, and Security At Third Specialized Training of AU Election Observers, 30th April 2024, Rabat, Morocco At the outset, let me affirm the honour for me to be back in Rabat to join you in this third specialized training of Africa n Union election observers which the kingdom of Morocco so graciously hosts and sponsors.
As a key AU Member State, Morocco's efforts help strengthen our commitment to transparent and credible democratic governance. Participants will be placed in the database of electoral experts of the Democracy, Elections and Constitutionalism unit within the PAPS department. The dialogue-seminar on May 2nd will tackle key issues in democratic processes, focussing on themes such as the underrepresentation of women and youth in governance, media, digital use and misinformation / disinformation.
Last year, of the 652 electoral observers deployed: 58.30% were male observers, 41.70% female observers, including 17 expert members of the management teams and 54 young people. This indicates that the au is prioritizing gender equality and parity. We therefore encourage member states, candidates, political parties, and coalitions, EMBs, CSOs and governments to do likewise to better ensure gender inclusivity.
