Opening Doors for Children: Prevention of Childhood Statelessness - Good Practices in the OSCE Area
The aim of this guide is to encourage OSCE participating States to adopt good practices to address and prevent childhood statelessness, ensure universal birth registration and implement other positive measures to protect stateless children. It summarizes the international legal framework relating to the prevention of childhood statelessness and provides examples of good practices from selected OSCE participating States. The guide was jointly developed by the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), the OSCE High Commissioner on National Minorities (HCNM) and UNHCR.
