As part of the outreach efforts of the Asian Network for Free Elections (ANFREL) for the international election observation mission to the 2025 national and local elections in the Philippines, we’re launching the limited podcast series “Ano Na?” which aims to share to the electorate how ANFREL observes and monitors elections from the perspective of the people behind and in front of the international election observation mission.

ANFREL hopes that through the podcast series, the electorate would have a better understanding of the value of election observation and monitoring in ensuring electoral integrity and in promoting electoral democracy.

For the first episode, we’ll be speaking with ANFREL electoral analysts Khoirunnisa Nur Agustyati and Jake Barker about the key focus areas and deployment plan of ANFREL’s IEOM.
