Law

The Legal Status of Stateless Persons under International Refugee Law

Quick fact

The 1951 Refugee Convention grants refugee status based on persecution, not statelessness alone—so many stateless persons fall into a legal gap, lacking both nationality and refugee protection.

Why this is interesting

Imagine being a person without a country—no passport, no embassy to turn to. If you flee persecution, does international refugee law automatically protect you? Not always.
