Abstract

Vanuatu held its first ever national referendum on 29 May 2024. Part 1 of this two-part In Brief series summarises the significance of the referendum as part of the country’s political integrity reforms. Part 2 details the legal and electoral dynamics that guided the conduct of this referendum. The In Brief series provides a Vanuatu case study that can inform future studies of Pacific Islands referenda and democratic processes.
