The 2023 International Conference of Asian Electoral Studies was held in the National Assembly, Seoul, Republic of Korea, on October 28, 2023. The Association of World Election Bodies (A-WEB) and the Korean Association of Electoral Studies (KAES) co-hosted this event.
The Conference was joined by scholars from
three Asian countries: Korea, Taiwan and Japan; several members of the National
Assembly of Korea; and other electoral stakeholders. The A-WEB Secretary General, Dr. In-sik Jang,
gave an opening speech, saying, “I hope this Conference will be another
resounding success as an exemplary model for regional cooperation in the
election field.” Assistant Secretary General Dr. Seung Kim
presented the Role of the Judiciary in Mediating Electoral Processes and
Outcomes in Africa. In his presentation, Dr. Kim shared his observation of
global trends in the judicialization of elections and related issues beyond the
Asian region and sought ways to cope with the common challenges.
The Conference has been an excellent opportunity for A-WEB to strengthen its cooperation with important electoral stakeholders such as academic and political circles.
