Without a nationality, stateless people may face a lifetime of exclusion and discrimination. Action is urgently needed for the millions of stateless people worldwide and the millions at risk of statelessness. #EndStatelessness #IBelong https://t.co/iL1H9hOhC2

There are roughly 2.3 million stateless people in Asia. Registration + documentation is key to preventing statelessness. Within the region, many countries have shown a commitment towards reducing #statelessness but much more needs to be done. #Ibelong https://t.co/zbaa5as3YG

There are roughly 2.3 million stateless people in Asia, of which more than 1 million are stateless Rohingya. At last month's pledging conference, the international community reaffirmed its support to finding solutions for the Rohingya crisis https://t.co/Bb7hm8VgJr #ibelong https://t.co/FR6xsIwL3C

We have seen tremendous progress more than halfway through our 10-year #IBelong campaign to end statelessness. But millions still don’t have a nationality and millions more are still at risk of becoming stateless. The world must step up for them. https://t.co/paUFzS29yE
