This report published by UNHCR in 2014, focuses on gender equality in nationality laws, particularly equality between men and women in conferring nationality to their children. It explains how gender-specific nationality law reforms were achieved in Algeria, Morocco, and Senegal. In addition, the report also describes an exemplary coordinated advocacy effort in the MENA region through the Arab Women's Right to Nationality Campaign, which assisted in paving the way for pioneering reforms in a number of countries and continues to promote further progress.
