I don’t have a country. I am trying to find a country to belong to.
"Hassan* speaks softly. We sit on the floor of the modest home he rents with
his wife Noor* and children as he tells me about fleeing Myanmar over a decade
ago.
We have no country, because I am Rohingya. We are born in Burma but we have
no documents. No citizenship, no birth registration. No nothing.
Hassan is one of the many stateless people I spoke to while researching
statelessness in Australia. Published today, the report, co authored by
Michelle Foster, Amelia Walters and I, reveals Hassan is not alone.
Far from finding security since arriving in Australia, thousands of people in
his situation continue to live in a state of legal limbo – with devastating
consequences."
