UNICEF and UNHCR Sign Letter of Understanding to Enhance Support for Refugee and Stateless Children and Women in Tajikistan

Nearly 37,000 people in Central Asia do not have a nationality. They are stateless.

They often aren’t allowed to go to school, see a doctor, get a job, open a bank account, buy a house or even get married.

For over a decade, Central Asian States, supported by UNHCR, have made significant progress in preventing and ending statelessness.
