Thematic analysis of pledges Pledges relevant to granting protection status to stateless migrants and facilitating their naturalization (Action 6 of the Global Action Plan) The 1954 Convention establishes a regime to protect the rights of stateless persons. While it does not explicitly require the establishment of statelessness determination procedures, it is implicit in the 1954 Convention that States must identify stateless persons within their jurisdictions so as to provide them appropriate treatment in order to comply with their Convention commitments. A large proportion of the pledges made at the HLS pertained to establishing statelessness determination procedures and facilitating the naturalization of stateless persons.
