Duties and Responsibilities:

• Conduct a thorough analysis of the current electoral laws and regulations in Honduras to identify gaps and areas for improvement.
• Collaborate with UNDP and local stakeholders to gather input and feedback on the proposed regulations.
• Develop a draft of the regulations concerning sanctions, coercive measures, and corrections, ensuring compliance with national and international standards.
• Facilitate workshops and meetings with stakeholders to discuss the draft regulations and incorporate their feedback.
• Revise the draft regulations based on stakeholder input and prepare the final version for submission.
• Provide recommendations for the implementation of the regulations, including training and capacity-building initiatives for electoral officials.
• Prepare a final report summarizing the consultancy process, findings, and recommendations.

Required Qualifications:

• Strong analytical skills with the ability to assess complex legal frameworks and propose practical solutions.
