Abstract
With elections expected in Samoa and Tonga in 2021, and
Papua New Guinea in 2022, development partners will
have already turned their attention to women’s inclusion in
those electoral processes as a means by which to reach
international democratic standards. Political economy analysis
(PEA) — an evidence-based assessment of the political
dynamics between structures, institutions and actors in a
given context, used to inform policy and programming (DFAT
2016) — has become a fundamental part of program design
and implementation, but remains underutilised in the particular area of women’s electoral programming.
