Our 2016 report on discriminatory nationality laws, submitted to the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, documents a wide range of harmful consequences and calls on governments to eliminate all discrimination against women in the transmission of their nationality to their husbands and children. It highlights countries where women do not have the same rights as men to convey their nationality, resulting in considerable hardship for the families concerned.
In 2022, we released an updated report, The State We’re In: Ending Sexism in Nationality Laws 2022 Edition – Update for a Disrupted World.
