Conference: Malti ta’ Malta

If you are interested in attending, please complete this registration form here: https://shorturl.at/fTK1S

Although no precise statistics exist, it is estimated that a few hundred stateless individuals reside in Malta, lacking the rights and privileges of any nationality. A significant proportion of these individuals are children, some born in Malta to stateless parents, some born at sea, and others born in war zones during their parents’ journeys to safety.

Stateless children born in Malta are as Maltese as any other child; they speak our language, attend our schools, participate in local clubs and teams, and are active in our communities. However, despite being stateless through no fault of their own, they face systemic discrimination, disenfranchisement, and the prospect of never legally belonging anywhere.

Malti ta’ Malta: A Conference on the Lived Experiences of Stateless Children in Malta will explore the profound impacts of denying citizenship to children in Malta and propose potential policy solutions to address this injustice. The panel discussion will highlight the voices of stateless Maltese children and include an analysis of the relevant legal framework and current policies surrounding enforced statelessness.
