The meeting, organized together with the National Elections Jury (JNE) and the National Office of Electoral Processes (ONPE) of Peru, seeks to strengthen the institutional capacity of electoral bodies, as well as to improve the organization of elections in the Americas. During the meeting, the representatives of the electoral institutions will address the following topics: governmental intervention in elections, quality management in electoral processes and challenges to electoral institutionalism.
The opening session will count with the participation of the General Secretariat Chief of Cabinet Hugo de Zela, in representation of the Secretary General, José Miguel de Insulza; the Permanent Representative of Peru to the OAS, Juan Federico Jiménez Mayor; and representatives of the electoral authorities of the country.
To date, eight Inter-American Electoral Authorities Meetings have been held. The last ones were celebrated between 2007 and 2012.
