EURECS II’s objectives are implemented under the overall objective : to promote transparency, credibility, and public confidence in Ethiopia's electoral process.

The specific objectives of EURECS unfold in the following three main areas:

• NEBE is empowered to hold all levels of elections and implement lessons learned from 2021 for the 2026 7th General Election and local elections
• Strengthened domestic election observation across mid-cycle elections (local, referendum and reruns) and in critical phases of the electoral cycle (voter and candidate registration)
• Increased participation of vulnerable groups, including IDPs, PWDs, the illiterate, women candidates, youth and first-time voters
