Learn all about statelessness: Institute on Statelessness and Inclusion 2019 Statelessness Summer Course
From 29 July – 2 August 2019, the Institute on Statelessness and Inclusion will hold its eighth annual Statelessness Summer Course. The Course offers a one-week programme for participants from all regions of the world to learn and share new knowledge, tools and skills in order to address statelessness and realise the right to a nationality. The programme includes reflections on the history and concepts of nationality and statelessness, and as the week progresses moves on to more specific questions relating to statelessness, including such topics as children’s right to a nationality, the interaction between statelessness and forced migration, the place of statelessness in the Sustainable Development Goals and the problem of arbitrary deprivation of nationality.
Positive feedback from Course alumni from the past seven years attests to the usefulness of the Course - often referring colleagues to future courses - from alumni increasing their understanding of the specifics surrounding nationality deprivation and using that in their own country-context, to getting involved with UN treaty bodies to call attention to the violation of certain human rights.
“This course helps you to understand the problem of statelessness around the world when you are new in this field, and also helps to share experiences with people from other parts of the world when you are an expert. So it is worth to attend if you are new or if you have huge experience, too.” Ágnes Ludányi , UNHCR Hungary (2018 course participant)
