European Network on Statelessness (also known as ENS) is a non-governmental organisation working to eradicate statelessness in Europe. It is a network of over 100 non-governmental organisations, academic initiatives, and individual experts across 39 countries. The stated objective of the organisation is "committed to ending statelessness and ensuring that the estimated 600,000 people living in Europe without a nationality are protected under international law."[1]
Background
Initially hosted as a project of its six founding organisations, the organisation was launched in 2012. In September 2014, ENS registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in the UK.[2]
