2020 UNDP initiative to assist the Republic of Vanuatu in the supervision of registration of electors and the planning and implementation of democratic elections for parliament, province, and municipal councils.
In 2020, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) implemented the Vanuatu Electoral Environment Project (VEEP). This initiative aimed to assist the Republic of Vanuatu in the supervision of registration of electors and the planning and implementation of democratic elections for parliament, province, and municipal councils. UNDP VEEP needed support from the United Nations Satellite Centre (UNOSAT) to identify housing buildings throughout the 83 islands in order to plan their electoral and civil registration campaign. Satellite imagery analysis has been useful globally in acquiring geographic information quickly and without a physical presence on the ground. Vanuatu is a small island country with complex geography, it is an archipelago made up of 13 principal and many smaller islands, making it difficult to navigate. UNOSAT specialized in providing geospatial support and satellite analysis, which was the best fit and priority for this initial phase of the project.
