### Why This Matters

The CVR exercise is crucial in enabling:

- **Young people** who have recently attained the age of 18 years to be included in the voters’ roll.
- **Unregistered citizens** to participate in shaping the future of the country through democratic elections.
- **Registered voters** to update, correct, or transfer their voter details.

This inclusive approach ensures that no eligible Kenyan is left out of the electoral process.

### Preparations by the Commission

IEBC Chairperson **Erastus Edung Ethekon, HSC** emphasized that the Commission has already begun implementing preparatory activities to guarantee an efficient, transparent, and inclusive exercise. These include:

1. **Mapping of Registration Centres** – Verifying both existing and proposed centres for accessibility.
2. **Stakeholder Engagements** – Holding constituency-level forums to promote awareness and encourage participation.
3. **Geospatial Data Consolidation** – Gathering constituency, county, and national-level data for better resource planning.
4. **KIEMS Kits Preparation** – Configuring and testing the Kenya Integrated Election Management System kits.
5. **Gazettement of Officers** – Officially appointing registration officers in compliance with the law.
6. **Training of Registration Personnel** – Equipping officers with the skills necessary for effective service delivery.
7. **Packaging and Distribution of Materials** – Ensuring timely dispatch of registration tools and resources nationwide.
8. **Data Protection Compliance** – Conducting a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) to align with data protection laws.
9. **Voter Education Campaigns** – Rolling out awareness programs to engage and inform the public.

### Services Available During CVR

According to the Commission, eligible Kenyans can access the following services at **any IEBC Constituency Office**, except in areas currently hosting by-elections:

- **New voter registration**
- **Transfer of registration** to a new polling station or constituency
- **Correction and update of voter details**
