relatives (grandfather, or maternal uncle ...). - Refer the case to partner organizations specialized in providing legal or psychological support. - Contribution to documentation efforts for the stateless and non-registered families (Kurds). Regarding the remaining 17 organizations, the reasons for not following up on stateless children cases and the right of women to grant citizenship and lineage were explained due to: - Not within the purview of the organization. - There is no sufficient experience and financial resources within the organization to deal with these cases. - Not within the current or future plans of the organization. - There are no competent authorities or clear laws to help the cases, and therefore no assistance can be provided to them. - Lack of donors’ interest in stateless children issues and the right of women to grant citizenship. Remarkably, of 17 organizations, only two intend to include stateless children and women’s right to grant nationality and lineage within their future programs. 49 | Survivors Considering the importance and sensitivity of female survivors’ issue and the harsh conditions they have experienced during detention, a particular section was allocated within the questionnaire to determine how survivors who were raped in detention are supported, and what procedures are followed in a survivor’s case, who became a mother of a child as a result of being raped. HUMANS WITHOUT RIGHTS Six organizations indicated that they contacted several cases of female survivors who were raped, which resulted in the birth of a child, and the assistance provided was limited to: - Transferring the child to an orphanage and providing medical and psychological assistance to the mother. - Legal and psychological counseling. - Providing medical care to the mother until birth. - Securing shelter for the mother and child. - Registering the child in the educational centers of the organization. - Providing an alternative family to take care of the survivor and her child.
