Libya Affirms Voting Rights for People with Disabilities

Libya Affirms Voting Rights for People with Disabilities
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The High National Election Commission (HNEC) of Libya has reaffirmed the right of all individuals, including people with disabilities, to participate in the electoral process, emphasizing its commitment to building a better future for everyone.

The announcement comes as the country approaches the second round of municipal council elections for 2025, coinciding with the celebration of World Braille Day on January 4.

This occasion serves as a reminder of the importance of empowering individuals with disabilities to actively participate in elections and decision-making processes, promoting equality and justice in both political and social rights.

Libya has been in chaos since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The county has for years been split between rival administrations.

Libya’s economy, heavily reliant on oil, has suffered due to the ongoing conflict. The instability has led to fluctuations in oil production and prices, impacting the global oil market and Libya’s economy.

The conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis in Libya, with thousands of people killed, and many more displaced. Migrants and refugees using Libya as a transit point to Europe have also faced dire conditions.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and foreign fighters. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
