Statelessness:Between Heaven and EarthFor the Central Asian countries, statelessness remains a challenge. Majority of stateless persons have no identity documents and lack access to basic human rights including social and economic rights, right to education, family and property rights. “Central Asia represents a unique opportunity when it comes to the statelessness issue, because there is a great willingness among the governments in the region to solve these problems. Also the problem is manageable in terms of the numbers and also in terms of resources that these countries have available to help solve these problems. Partnership with the civil society is vital for resolving the issue of statelessness, and I am very optimistic that the region can become the first region in the world to completely eliminate this problem of statelessness” – said Mr. Bernard Doyle, Regional Representative/Regional Coordinator for Central Asia.
