ANNEX E: STATELESSNESS EXPERTS ROUNDTABLE On November 23, 2020, the Evaluation Team hosted a two-hour virtual roundtable with seven statelessness subject matter experts. The purpose of the roundtable was to collect information, recommendations, and feedback from statelessness experts as the Evaluation Team entered the evaluation’s data gathering phase. The Evaluation Team identified the expert participants based on their contributions to the statelessness field (research and publications) and their specific knowledge of statelessness in the Dominican Republic, Nepal, and Thailand. To ensure impartiality, none of the experts consulted were current UNHCR or State Department staff. OBJECTIVES Specific objectives of the roundtable included: 1. Identify statelessness experts’ opinions on key milestones and outcomes in focus countries’ journeys towards eradicating statelessness. 2. Solicit statelessness experts’ opinions around the effectiveness of UNHCR’s Global Action Plan to End Statelessness. 3. Gather feedback around practical elements of the evaluation’s virtual fieldwork. AGENDA 1. Welcome and Introductions 2. Overview of the PRM Evaluation 3. Countries of Focus– Milestones/Outcomes a.
