European Network on Statelessness

The European Network on Statelessness is a civil society alliance of over 180 organisations and individual experts in 41 countries. We are committed to ending statelessness and ensuring that everyone living in Europe without a nationality can access the rights they are entitled to under international law.

ENS was established in 2012 as a coordinating body and expert resource for organisations and individuals working to promote the right to a nationality in Europe. Since then we have grown into a dynamic organisation with a dedicated staff team of ten and a committed membership spanning 41 European countries. We strive to be an effective catalyst for change, mobilising key actors and galvanising civil society action on an issue that was previously hidden and ignored.
