Guide to Risk Factors for Elections in the G5 Sahel Region: Factors External to the Electoral Process
The G5 Sahel countries—Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania and Niger—will organize elections in 2020 and 2021. These elections will take place in a context in which all are facing serious humanitarian and securities challenges, aggravated by the fragility of their institutions. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and its socioeconomic impacts worsen the situation and even raise questions about the possibility to organize elections in so volatile an environment.
This Guide has been developed to assist decision-makers and practitioners in this context.
