I SI’s World Conference on Statelessness took place in the Hague from 26-28 June 2019 and provided a unique space for conversations that transcend geographic divides and connect people working in different fields and disciplines. At a time when citizenship is under so much threat, it was extremely rewarding to witness the openness, energy and enthusiasm with which conference participants engaged on this critical issue. We hope this conference marks a new beginning. Re-energised, inspired and empowered, may we all work together to build a truly inclusive movement, despite the many barriers before us. We at ISI, will redouble our efforts as the global expert, partner, catalyst, advocate and leader in the field, to galvanise action. This report is a post-conference publication which pinpoints the key takeaways of the Conference as a whole, while simultaneously giving an overview of the main overarching themes including development, women & children, migration, minorities and securitisation of citizenship and the arbitrary deprivation of nationality. The report aims to give an overview of the Conference, reaffirming and reminding Conference participants and demonstrating to those curious about the three days, that the Conference was the beginning of a truly inclusive and interdisciplinary global movement to address statelessness. In 2022, we will host the Second World Conference on Statelessness, to again convene, take stock, celebrate, reflect and build on. We hope to see you there!
