- "To implement the recommendation to 'end statelessness' found in the UN Secretary General’s ‘Our Common Agenda’ report, UNHCR is serving as the Secretariat to lead the establishment [of] the Global Alliance to End Statelessness. The Global Alliance will seek to build on the concrete gains and momentum generated by the #IBelong Campaign to End Statelessness by 2024 and serve as a platform to increase collective advocacy efforts, catalyse political commitments to address the problem, and accelerate the implementation of concrete solutions to statelessness. The Global Alliance will be launched in 2023." See also related ENS editorial.
