Preview

Description: The 2016 report focused on sex discrimination in the transferral of citizenship to children and foreign spouses; as well as an analysis of the compliance of nationality laws in terms of equality in the right to acquire, change and retain nationality with the provisions of international human rights standards. In order to clearly highlight the continuing existence of discriminatory nationality laws, they focused on the crucial areas of discrimination that have a profound negative impact on the lives of individuals. This report has expanded to provide high-level information and analysis of sex discrimination and good practices in certain additional categories, including the ability of women to pass nationality to adopted children; the right of LGBTQ+ individuals and same-sex couples to pass nationality to their spouse and children; and naturalization hurdles which discriminate against women with disabilities.
