Description: SEAP II expands on the first edition, covering over three years of research, including Central Asia and Country Factsheets for 45 countries. Challenges include discriminatory citizenship laws and limited access to naturalization. Southeast and South Asia host the majority of stateless individuals, notably in Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Thailand. Legal safeguards for childhood statelessness vary, and climate change poses additional risks, especially in the Pacific. Treaty ratification is inconsistent, and funding for addressing statelessness remains insufficient.
