Syria's undocumented children left stateless by war and nationality law

Original: Syria’s undocumented children ‘pay the price’ of war and a law that shuts out mothers

The United Nations is highlighting the plight of Syria's undocumented children, who it says are 'paying the price' of more than a decade of war combined with a nationality law that prevents Syrian mothers from passing citizenship to their children. With fathers missing, dead or unregistered, thousands of children are left without legal identity, blocking access to schooling, healthcare and basic rights.

Why now: The UN is drawing renewed attention to statelessness among Syrian children as the country's future is debated internationally.
