A global press release marking the Campaign anniversary ‘UNHCR urges states to end limbo for stateless people by 2024’ generated 80 pieces of coverage. Multimedia stories were published on UNHCR’s global website on the situation of the Shona population in Kenya and about a woman who finally gained Russian citizenship in 2018. In Zambia, on 11 November, UNHCR published an open letter to the Government of Zambia in the Times of Zambia and other major media platforms, applauding the efforts taken by the Government to date to eradicate statelessness and calling for accelerated momentum to address remaining issues. In Kosovo2 , UNHCR published two videos with key messages on the importance of birth registration for the prevention of statelessness. The videos were produced with contributions from influential community members, UNHCR and UNICEF. To mark the anniversary in Eswatini, UNHCR conducted a training on statelessness for journalists working for radio stations, TV and newspapers. The training built the capacity of participants to report on statelessness, and it is hoped that the issue and the #IBelong Campaign will receive greater attention from the media in the future. In Luxembourg, UNHCR produced a Luxembourgish version of UNHCR’s key calls to the European Union to end Statelessness in order to raise awareness of the key role EU Member States can play in ending statelessness. In Italy, UNHCR organized an Instagram feed “takeover” with five stateless persons living in Italy and abroad. In the course of the week, they shared their experiences in order to raise awareness about statelessness and the importance of achieving the objectives of the #IBelong Campaign. The Instagram “takeover” and related sponsored posts and content on Facebook and Twitter reached an audience of over one hundred and ninety thousand people. In Madagascar, the NGO Focus Development Association (FDA) conducted capacity building sessions for local print, television and radio journalists in three project intervention sites: Mahajanga, Fianarantsoa and Toliara. About sixty journalists received training concerning statelessness. Several articles were published following the training, including in the newspapers Studio Sifaka and L’Express de Madagascar. FDA, with the support of UNHCR, also celebrated the anniversary through the streaming of a Facebook talk show on “the right to nationality”.
