Media Impact of the Campaign In the Democratic Republic of Congo, on 4 May, the Comité Technique Interinstutionnel de lutte contre l’apatridie (CTLA) in partnership with UNHCR, hosted a Press Lunch on statelessness. The aim of the lunch was to sensitize media corporations and journalists on issues of statelessness in the DRC, UNHCR’s mandate on statelessness, and the role that the media can play in advocating for the protection of stateless persons, those at risk, and towards ending statelessness. In Iran, statements by a prominent figure from the judiciary were picked up by local media, referring to statelessness as harmful, leading to deprivation of basic rights and criminality, and calling for coordination between relevant government departments, including the Ministry of Interior and the Civil Registration Organization, to resolve some of the problems in this area. In South Sudan, UNHCR, ASPIRE and United Nations Association of South Sudan, organized the first Model United Nations at the University of Juba. Students, acting as delegates from various countries around the globe, were able to talk and engage on matters related to statelessness and climate change in the countries they represented.
