<p>Since 2015, DFID has supported the current electoral process in the Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC). This involved support to increasing democratic representation
of women and youth, raising people’s awareness through civic/electoral education,
protecting human rights defenders and broadening the Catholic Church’s electoral observation
activities. Since February 2017, we have increased our support to civic education
and the training of additional independent electoral observers. In addition, we announced
that funding would be made available to update the national electoral roll, if all
parties were prepared to hold free, fair and timely elections. That offer remains
on the table.</p>
