Campaign Publicity
UNHCR released a video about the Evaluation and
Follow-up Mechanism “Towards Zero Statelessness”.
This evaluation mechanism was developed to
support States in Latin America and the Caribbean
to determine if they have managed to eradicate
statelessness. It is also a tool that contributes to the
development of strategies and operations plans at
the national level and gives visibility and recognition
to the progress of States.
In the Kyrgyz Republic, the
UNHCR-UNICEF Coalition
on Every Child’s Right to
a Nationality organized a
successful public information
campaign called ‘invisible
children’ from 28 January to
1 February. Transparent childshaped installations were
placed in the Parliament
and in key public spots in
Bishkek to support and
raise awareness of the
fundamental right of every
child to birth registration,
a name and a nationality.
The campaign ended with a
parliamentary roundtable on
birth registration.
