Openings
We are looking for country experts and editorial assistants for a country-by-country global report. This work is voluntary and will be concentrated in the last quarter of 2015 and the first half of 2016. You are invited to apply either as a pair or individually.
The Report: The Statelessness Report 2016 will bring together peer-reviewed country-reports by experts from all over the world to examine how the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) may affect stateless persons. Country chapters will be drafted according to a template developed by ASAP and the Institute on Statelessness and Inclusion, and the report\’s conceptual framework will be based on a briefing paper drafted by the Institute and ASAP, which will be reviewed by experts at a Chatham House event.
If this project interests you, but you don\’t see yourself in either of these roles, note that we are also seeking people to help in other ways. Email \’more information\’ to statelessnessreport@gmail.com to learn more, or to suggest a way in which you can help us

You would be sent the template as soon as it is ready. Once you have completed it for your country, you would submit it for peer review. We are planning to launch the report at several regional events and there would then be scope for to be involved in the organisation of an event in your region.
