WNYC Interviews Open Society Justice Initiative Senior Legal Officer About Stateless Crisis
May 11, 2006

Julia Harrington, the Open Society Justice Initiative's Senior Legal Officer for Equality and Citizenship, along with two participants from the OSI forum "In Transit to Nowhere—Personal Accounts of Statelessness in the 21st Century," Adam Hussein Adam from Kenya and Naw Htoo Paw from Burma, were interviewed on WNYC's Leonard Lopate Show. The discussion addressed what life is like without an official nationality, and why various ethnic and minority groups from Africa to Asia are being constrained to statelessness.
