Important acknowledgement that election observers are human rights defenders. EU Member States like Austria are required to change their legislation to enable independent impartial election observation. @MFA_Austria @osce_odihr @EPDeu #ep2024
Election observers are human rights defenders and civil society actors. States should enable independent and impartial election observation by all monitors, including from abroad. Statement by @cvoule and I on today's anniversary: srdefenders.org/information/…

Paid content should be clearly labelled. People must know why they are seeing an political ad, who paid for it, how much, what micro-targeting criteria were used. Transparency rules should apply across the ads production chain (political party, PR company, platform, data broker)
