UN organisation / body / branch: UNHCR-UNICEF Coalition on Every Child's Right to a Nationality

Description: This report, produced by the UNHCR and UNICEF Coalition on Every Child’s Right to Nationality, examines the link between minority status and childhood statelessness. Discrimination against minorities often results in deprivation of nationality, which can be inherited across generations, leaving tens of thousands of children without legal recognition. Stateless children face significant barriers to fundamental human rights, including access to education, healthcare, and legal protection. When combined with societal prejudice and hostility, these challenges are intensified for minority groups.
