Overview
The Global Campaign for Equal Nationality Rights mobilizes international action to achieve law reform in the 24 countries that prevent mothers from conferring their nationality on their children on an equal basis with fathers; and to achieve law reform in the 47 countries which deny women equal nationality rights with men, including conferral of nationality to non-national spouses. Campaign Coalition members include local, regional and international NGOs, academics, civil society partners, UN agencies, and government allies across the globe. Coalition members contribute to the Campaign in a variety of ways, including through local activism, international advocacy, knowledge sharing, capacity building and research. Founding Steering Committee members include Equality Now, Equal Rights Trust, the Institute on Statelessness and Inclusion, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), Women's Learning Partnership, and the Women’s Refugee Commission, where the Campaign Manager is based.
