PHILIPSBURG:--- In keeping with our objective to cultivate a more informed (Sint Maarten) population/ society, the Sint Maarten Institute for Public Policy Studies (SIPPS) will be hosting an Electoral Reform Town Hall on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, 7:00pm, at the Belair Community Center, Cay Hill.
The aim of the Town Hall is to:
• Facilitate a “meeting the moment” national/ local conversation and action on the public’s desire for sustainable governing, i.e., electoral reform,
• Provide the leadership of the governing political parties with a platform to share their agenda on electoral reform with the public at large, and
• Build local consensus and priority issues for electoral reform through inclusive public participation, i.e., the public’s input and engagement in the reform process.
To this end, the general public is cordially invited to attend and participate in this informational and educational event. The leadership of the Parliamentary elected political parties will be invited to present their perspectives on “Electoral Reform” and the audience will be given the opportunity to query and ask questions of concern.
The President
Sint Maarten Institute for Public Policy Studies
