About Us
The European Network on Statelessness (ENS) is a civil society alliance of organisations and individuals working to promote the right to a nationality in Europe. Our network brings together over 180 members in more than 40 countries.

Our secretariat team of 9 is based in the UK, our Board of Trustees includes individuals based in the UK and across Europe.
We are a fully digital and paperless team, using MS365 and a CRM.

Now we're looking forward to harnessing technology like AI and more, to continue to innovate in our work to end statelessness and protect people without a nationality.
Our vision is for a Europe where everyone is able to realise their right to a nationality.
