• Resumen

  • In Chapter VII, the statelessness phenomenon in South Asia is addressed. The chapter notes that due regard should be paid to the root causes of statelessness and the vulnerability that is subsequently created. To overcome structural sources of vulnerability, cultural and societal power structures nationally and regionally need to be addressed and regional cooperation should be enhanced. In relation to the EU approach to statelessness in South Asia, it is suggested that the issue of statelessness as a source to vulnerability could be more clearly taken up as a part of the human rights dialogue process with the states in the area. Measures could also be taken for increased normative guidance in relation to human rights and for facilitation of regional dialogues within South Asia on the issue of statelessness.
