MODEL OF THE ELECTORAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION SYSTEM IN MOZAMBIQUE

Electoral Registration (ER) is essential for the legitimacy of elections in Mozambique, and it is crucial to ensure that all citizens have access to the political process. The objective of this article is to propose an efficient model for the Electoral Registration Information System in Mozambique, which integrates modern technologies to optimize the registration process, improve data accuracy and increase citizen participation. The research used a mixed approach, using a combination of data collection methods, including direct observations, document analysis, literature review, questionnaires and interviews with relevant stakeholders. The results indicate that the excessive use of paper materials in the years 2018, 2019, 2023 and 2024 had a negative impact on both the efficiency of the system and its environmental impacts. The research revealed that eliminating these redundant materials could significantly improve the effectiveness of the Electoral Registration Information System (ERIS).
