Discrimination and exclusion are at the root of statelessness

Pope Francis, in his 2021 message for the World Day of Migrants and Refugees, said:

"We are all in the same boat and called to work together so that there will be no more walls that separate us, no longer others, but only a single 'we', encompassing all of humanity."

Yet, millions of stateless people around the world live on the margins of the margins because they are not recognized as citizens by any country. Their lack of legal identity puts them in a state of increased vulnerability.
