This assessment analyzed how the political context affects elected officials ' motivation and capacity to develop , articulate and pursue pro-poor policy . Despite a recent constitutional referendum that significantly strengthened presidential powers , leadership in both houses of Kyrgyzstan 's first democratically elected parliament have sought to establish the legislature as an independent and effective institution . Another skill that ca n't be taught but must be learned it that of Media Relations . It became an annual tradition , one or both of us caught on film a moment before some hurled object makes contact .

Promoting Transparency NDI conducted trainings for political party poll-watchers throughout the pre-election-cycle period to help ensure that the legislative and municipal elections on November 19 proceeded freely and fairly . Also active on the issue of electoral reform , NDI organized two international conferences on this theme in 2003 , and trained over 30 Algerian journalists on balanced and accurate media coverage in advance of the 2002 local elections .
