Description: The response to statelessness has mostly focused on trying to find durable solutions for stateless populations. These solutions are characterised by attempts to provide the stateless with legal protection and an ability to have access to the same rights as citizens. Without citizenship, and membership of a state, the stateless are thought to lack political voice, but this paper argues that ‘acts of citizenship’ are not always dependent on citizenship membership. The case study of Preah Thnov village in Cambodia demonstrates how a Christian school became a site where children with undetermined nationality were able to enact themselves as citizens.
