Seoul International Forum on Elections (SIFE)

The Seoul International Forum on Elections is an international event held annually by the National Election Commission of the Republic of Korea to gather established experts in the field of elections to discuss issues related to election management, share ideas and debate how to make fair, free, and inclusive elections around the world.
 
The National Election Commission (NEC) invites some of the most prominent organizations and experts in the field of elections, including professionals from other election management bodies, to speak at the forum in line with its commitment to international cooperation. The SIFE is now establishing itself as an important part of the election management community, with various participants since 2015.
 
The forum is a one-day event, with the day split into three sessions on topics chosen by the NEC. These topics are chosen according to the trends of election management and with the input of the various departments and affiliated organizations of the NEC. The forum is held in a prominent venue in Seoul, and speakers are also given the opportunity to visit the NEC office and learn more about the Korean election and political system during their visit.
