This compendium, adopted by the Council of Europe’s European Committee on Legal Co-operation (CDCJ), draws on replies from 29 member states to highlight promising legal and administrative practices to improve access to nationality for stateless children. It is structured around four areas: preventing child statelessness through nationality law safeguards and child-specific nationality determination; child-friendly procedures, including legal aid, representation, accessible information and access to justice; birth registration, including flexible evidence and late registration; and awareness-raising and training for relevant officials. It aims to inspire reforms to prevent and reduce child statelessness across Europe.
