Reaching Every Voter: The Next Wave of Voter Registration

Voter registration remains one of the most vital — and often most challenging — pillars of inclusive electoral participation. As technology continues to evolve, new tools are emerging that can expand access to voter registration for citizens at home and abroad, while improving accuracy, security, and trust in the process.

This webinar will bring together election officials, digital identity experts, and civic tech innovators to explore the next generation of voter registration strategies. From biometric systems to portable digital identities and diaspora engagement, the session will examine how election management bodies are using technology to reach every eligible voter — wherever they are.

Key Topics

• Facilitating Voter Registration for the Diaspora: Strategies for enabling remote and cross-border registration that maintains integrity and accessibility.
• Biometric Voter Registration: Lessons from the Field: Insights from countries that have deployed biometric systems — what has worked, what hasn’t, and what comes next.
• Borderless Registration through Digital Identity: Exploring the potential of portable, secure digital identities to support more flexible and inclusive voter enrolment.
• Cross-National Collaboration and Innovation: Case studies highlighting partnerships and innovations from electoral commissions worldwide.

With key contributions from election leaders in Malawi, Albania, and Latin America, this session will provide both policy context and practical guidance for electoral institutions seeking to modernise and expand their voter registration processes.
