Three of the significant questions highlighted\u00a0in this policy paper are: Why is it important to rethink electoral assistance when dealing with democracy promotion policy? What instruments and approaches did the EU, the US, and Canada employ while implementing their electoral assistance policy in the PT? How effective were the actors\u2019 policies in the democratization process of the PT and why? Addressing the actors\u2019 policy successes and shortfalls is necessary before providing valid proposals to the policy-makers who are pioneering the democracy promotion programs in the MENA region.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/canadaeurope\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rouba-Al-Fattal.-Policy-Paper.-2014.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2303\" alt=\"RoubaAlfattal.
