Dear All,
Do you know of people who could be stateless? If yes, we would be
interested to hear from you!
We are a team working on an innovative research project being undertaken
jointly by UNHCR and Asylum Aid on the issue of statelessness in the UK.
The purpose of the project is to complete a detailed mapping of the
number, situation and profile of stateless people in the UK and an
analysis of relevant UK law, policy and practice relating to stateless
people. The aim is to produce detailed evidence which can be used to
advocate for change in government policy, which can hopefully lead to
positive outcomes for stateless people in the UK.
We are trying to identify individuals who might be willing to be
interviewed for our research, as well as to potentially have their case
files reviewed where possible. We are appealing for your help in
facilitating this process.
Please visit:
http://www.asylumaid.org.uk/data/files/entry_point_questionnaire__final.doc
for a short information sheet which explains the project in more detail
including exactly what we mean by a stateless person and examples of
individuals who could be included in this category, as well as
information on how the research will be used and exactly what would be
required of the interviewee. This also includes a short referral form
(questionnaire) for you to fill in which simply asks for your contact
details so we can get in touch with either you or your client/the
interviewee directly, as well providing a little bit of information
about the individual in question so we can better understand their
circumstances.
Please either return the completed referral form (using the additional
sheet where you have more than one case) to
[log in to unmask] ideally by Monday 10th January 2011 or
access it online by following the link on the home page at

Many thanks and we look forward to hearing from you,
Please send all replies to: [log in to unmask]
