  • Summary

  • As part of the D.C. Bar International Law Community’s historic year of elections* initiative focusing on global principles and standards for national elections, Brief Encounters hosted Dr. Beata Martin-Rozumilowicz and Julia Brothers, experts in the democratic elections and governance sector, to discuss international standards and leading-edge European legislation on democratic elections, including on election technology, artificial intelligence, and information integrity. We assessed how elections across the world have fared so far this year vis a vis those standards, and spotlighted the international observation report on the US 2024 General Election, issued by the invited international observation mission of the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), of which the US is a participating member. For more resources, please visit the International Law Community’s webpage on Global Elections and Electoral Standards. The webpage includes guidance on legal frameworks, equal access to voting, protections for election observers and electoral workers, electoral integrity and accountability, and links to organizations in the US and Europe that work on elections and democracy promotion. *This year over half the globe’s population has already or will be voting in over 80 national elections, making this year the biggest election year in history, and the largest election cycle until 2048. Speaker Bios: Dr. Beata Martin-Rozumilowicz is an electoral expert with more than 20 years of experience globally who has served on numerous European Union election observation missions. She headed the election department of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) and led as Director for Europe and Eurasia and Technical Adviser for Technology in Elections at the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES). Julia Brothers is the Deputy Director for Elections at the National Democratic Institutions for International Affairs (NDI). Julia has worked in dozens of countries worldwide leading electoral assessments and electoral integrity projects.
