Thematic analysis of pledges Pledges relevant to prevention of denial, loss or deprivation of nationality on discriminatory grounds (Action 4 of the Global Action Plan) Over three-quarters of the world’s known statelessness populations belong to ethnic, racial, religious and/or linguistic minority groups. Since the launch of the #IBelong Campaign, no State has amended its laws to remove provisions which permit denial, loss or deprivation of nationality on discriminatory grounds. The 5 pledges made on this subject are therefore notable, and the advocacy efforts of international/regional organizations and civil society organizations will be important in fostering reform in States’ nationality laws to remove such discrimination.
