result in a dedicated protection status associated with clear rights and support mechanisms. III. Withdraw the reservation to Article 13 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. IV. Withdraw the reservations to Articles 11, 13, 15, and 16 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women. V. Add the categories ‘stateless’ and ‘unknown nationality’ in national census exercises. VI.

Modify the Civil Code to ensure the birth registration of children born in international waters where their registration in another country is impossible due to legal or other considerations. XIII. Implement an information campaign or other awareness-raising activity on the importance of birth registration, ensuring that the campaign/activity reaches 6
