Session 4 Key Insights: AI is not the problem;lack of guidance, capacity, and standards is. Eectoral justice systems must catch up. #AIinGovernance #ElectoralJustice @SEDROBZ @KJA_KENYA @KJA_Kenya @YIAGA @tsunga_arnold

Day2 the conversation from design → delivery. How do EDR systems perform under pressure&where do they break?#ElectoralJustice #DemocracyInAfrica. Core insight:Strong frameworks are not enough,implementation gaps,not legal gapsare driving contested elections @Coffi_12 @KJA_Kenya

EDR@AI systems perspective: Electoral justice depends on two sides: 📥 Evidence collection (CSOs, observers) ⚖️ Evidence management (courts) Both must evolve for the digital age. #Governance #RuleOfLaw @KJA_Kenya @Kenyajudiciary @taotami @tsunga_arnold @Coffi_12 @YIAGA

2/ As @tsunga_arnold notes: Africa does not lack EDR systems,it faces a crisis of credibility, coherence, and prevention. More systems ≠ better outcomes. @Coffi_12 @EISAfrica @KJA_Kenya @Kenyajudiciary

8/ This exposes a deeper flaw: EDR systems are built to resolve disputes, but not to prevent them.And that imbalance is structural...#ElectoralJustice #ElectionDisputeResolution ##RuleOfLaw @Coffi_12 @taotami @Kenyajudiciary

9/ At the same time, institutions face real trade-offs: Speed vs fairness Finality vs accountability Access vs evidentiary thresholds Too often, speed is crowding out substantive justice.@Kenyajudiciary @CMDKenya @EISAfrica @Coffi_12 @tsunga_arnold #ElectoralJustice

10/ And beneath it all: a credibility gap.Citixens don’t accept decisions because they are legal, they accept them because they trust the institutions behind them. Without trust, even sound rulings fail.@AUC_PAPS @Kenyajudiciary @taotami @Coffi_12 @tsunga_arnold @CMDKenya

11/ Prof Benyera’s provocation was sharp: What if judicialisation is not progress, but a symptom of political failure? When compromise collapses, the courtroom becomes the battlefield.@Coffi_12 @sedrobz @taotami @Kenyajudiciary @CMDKenya @KJA_Kenya

Session 2 shifts from diagnosis → to solutions: How Africa is designing legal and institutional responses to electoral disputes.@tsunga_arnold @taotami #ElectoralJustice #RuleOfLaw @KJA_Kenya @Coffi_12 @CMDKenya

"It is not the absence of disputes that ensures electoral integrity but how disputes are managed. The real shift is from reaction to prevention.”Opening the #ElectoralJustice Dialogue, EISA’s Executive Director sets the tone for a critical conversation on strengthening EDR.

"No system of electoral justice can claim legitimacy if it is not credible and simply understood by voters,especially women and youth.”Powerful reflections from Hon. Justice Smokin Wanjala of  Supreme Court of Kenya at the @EISAfrica #ElectoralJustice Dialogue. @Kenyajudiciary

"Judiciaries can't replace the decision of the voter, but they can protect &uphold it through their determinations. Election disputes are unavoidable, whether they strengthen democracy is up to us. Let's build systems that are timely& tech adept.” Hon. Lady Justice Njoki Ndungu.

EISA’s Balloting & Electoral Services unit provides a suite of electoral services including online voter registration, candidate vetting, verification of voter’s roll, as well as manual & online nominations and voting. For more information contact BES: eisa.org/balloting-elec…
