Independent observers

Independent observers are neutral professionals or organizations assigned to monitor and assess events, processes, or elections to ensure fairness and transparency. They do not have a stake in the outcome and operate without bias, providing impartial reports on whether procedures are followed correctly. Their presence helps build trust among participants and the public by showing that operations are conducted honestly and according to established standards. These observers can be from local, national, or international bodies, and their role is crucial in maintaining integrity and confidence in processes like elections or legal proceedings.
