Report on Kurdistan Parliament
Following the 2005 parliamentary elections, ASK launched a new project in Kurdistan during the second term (2005–2008). This project monitored parliamentary activities, evaluating the progress of various parties in fulfilling their election promises. ASK visited several parliamentary committees and organized seminars for their members. Additionally, the organization produced regular reports based on observations of public sessions, which garnered attention from both the Kurdish government and the media. Below are examples of work produced by ASK staff.
