EIGHT YEARS OF INTENSIVE EFFORTS FOR
ENHANCING CITIZENS’ VOICE & ACCOUNTABILITY IN PAKISTAN

As an integral partner of ECP & NADRA in their efforts to reduce the gender gap on the electoral rolls,
TDEA has, from 2017 onwards, identified 2.95 million unregistered women and helped register more than 1.10 million of them.
On July 7, 2021, ECP announced the 4th phase of the campaign, to further reduce the gender gap.

THE GENDER GAP
ON THE ELECTORAL ROLLS

TDEA formed a unique coalition comprising of more than 180 national, provincial,
and regional partners, actively engaged in conducting rights-based advocacy for women, PWDs, and transgender people.
This Coalition for Inclusive Pakistan (CIP) aims to increase the electoral and political participation
of some of the most disenfranchised groups in the country.

INCLUDING THE EXCLUDED

TDEA and UNDP signed a Partnership Agreement to enhance women's NIC
and voter registration under the ECP's nationwide campaign, which has led to
the addition of 855,000 women voters to the electoral rolls between
October 2017 and October 2020.
