Citizenship & National Identity

How does the interplay between religious identity and citizenship particularly affect the rights of minorities?

Citizenship deprivation processes have a serious impact on one’s enjoyment of basic human rights.

Mass deprivation of nationality is a global phenomenon. On this page, you will find case studies about the denial of nationality of the Rohingya in Myanmar and the citizenship determination processes in Assam, India.

On this page, you will find research-based audio-visual resources, including films and expert interviews. We will explore the interplay between citizenship, national and religious identity, and their potential consequences of exclusion and statelessness. The materials examine key concepts, challenges, and international human rights frameworks, with a focus on majority–minority dynamics and how religious and gendered perspectives influence the deprivation of citizenship.

Whether you are an educator, practitioner, student, or working for a civil society organisation, this page offers insights to help you navigate and contribute to more inclusive communities.
