The Electoral Commission today joined the Judiciary at Kololo Independence Grounds for the National Court Open Day, an initiative aimed at bringing judicial services and information closer to the public. The event provided an opportunity for people to interact with various justice sector institutions and learn more about access to justice and the role these institutions play in upholding the rule of law. The Commission’s participation reflects its continued commitment to working with sister institutions and engaging the public on issues that strengthen democratic governance and civic awareness.
