"The right to a nationality - the right to human rights" - Joint UNHCR - SOAS seminar
UNHCR Nordic and Baltic Countries
Description
This seminar explores the right to a nationality as a fundamental right. The right to a nationality is widely seen as a gateway right to the enjoyment of other basic rights, including the right to work, education, health care, reside and return to their home country. During the seminar, Wilfried Buchhorn, the Deputy Representative of UNHCR's Representation of the Nordic and Baltic Countries, and Jehna Al-Moushahidi, founder of the Swedish Organization Against Statelessness (SOAS), discuss the current situation of stateless persons globally and in Sweden as well as what is being done to address the challenge.
