MAPPING OF THE POPULATION AT RISK OF STATELESSNESS IN ALBANIA day-to-day interactions with the state or with private entities.” The impact of statelessness on an individual would be felt on a daily basis. Any and all interactions with the State or authorities or agencies representing the state become impossible, problematic, anxious or possibly dangerous. Through a person’s life cycle, it can be seen that without state recognition, access to healthcare can be denied, access to education can be denied, access to state support in the form of services, the right to own property, right to a bank account and full access to the jobs market. They may not be able to officially marry. Any disputes or legal redress that they seek, could be denied, as access to justice is largely dependent upon citizenship. If they are a victim of a crime, they may well not be able or even prepared to approach the appropriate authorities. A stateless person, or a person as risk of being stateless is also deprived of freedom of movement. Since a passport can be difficult or impossible to secure, crossing borders will not be allowed and the attempt to do so may result in detention or deportation. The only available option may be illegal movement that could lay them open to personal dangers. Even within a country, the freedom of movement can be restricted in a way that an officially recognized citizen’s would not. Psychologically, many stateless people feel inadequate, incomplete or marginalised. Because of so many difficulties and obstacles faced in their daily lives, they are more prone to illnesses such as anxiety and depression. 24 UNHCR - TLAS / May 2018
