#KeepItOn Election Watch: supporting the fight against internet shutdown in 2023.

Session Format: Open workshop

Access Now and the #KeepItOn coalition will be monitoring at least 15 elections in 2023 to ensure that authorities in these countries do not interfere with internet and digital communications throughout the electoral process. This session seeks to provide insights about the #KeepItOn Election Watch campaign to the DRIF participants and explore opportunities of working together with other partners. The session will also be an opportunity for participants to reflect on the challenges, lessons learnt and opportunities faced in the fight against shutdowns. At the end of the session, participants will learn about the various ways in which they can support the #KeepItOn community.
