Edited by Michael Yard, this study examines three categories of civil and voter registries through the dual lenses of local culture and globally accepted principles: 1. First time registration 2. Strengthening existing registration with new technology 3. Using a continuous registration system or a civil register Case studies on Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq, Guyana, Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Georgia, and Canada are presented to better illustrate the myriad of issues EMBs must address. The study concludes with a summary of recommendations culled from varying experiences around the world.

OSCE Guidelines on Population Registration	The guidelines were developed on the recognition that population registration is common to most, but not all, OSCE participating States and that in those States using this model, it provides the legal and administrative framework for compliance with fundamental OSCE commitments and international standards in three distinct areas: the rule of law, the right of universal and equal suffrage and freedom of movement, especially free choice of place of residence. In particular, the guidelines emphasise the potential for synergies and effective linkages between voter registers and population registration systems in order to guarantee universal and equal suffrage. The guidelines are addressed primarily to policy-makers and serve to elucidate the main principles governing the establishment and maintenance of functional systems of population registration in democratic societies. They outline the characteristics of systems which are compliant with the above-mentioned international commitments and data protection standards, highlighting good practices in the OSCE region while taking account of the various administrative traditions of 56 OSCE participating States. The ODIHR will use the guidelines to assist states in building sustainable, accurate and transparent voter registration systems through the modernisation of population registration system in line with international standards and OSCE commitments on freedom of movement.
