Statelessness and Nationality in Côte d'Ivoire - A Study for UNHCR

This report sheds light on the ways statelessness can arise through the cracks in Côte d’Ivoire’s nationality system. It concludes with a number of recommendations on necessary steps – such as nationality law reform, better identification of those who are stateless or at risk of statelessness, strengthening of the civil status system, and the transparent and uniform identification of nationals and foreigners – to resolve statelessness and ensure respect for the right to nationality.
