    Blocked Access to Birth Registration: Implications for Migrant Families’ Economic & Social Rights

    About This Event

    Around the world children born to migrant parents with precarious status face difficulties obtaining birth certificates, and may become stateless as a result. This has important implications for migrant families’ economic and social rights. Conversely, points of access to social and economic rights are often the very sites where migrant families’ exclusion from birth registration becomes apparent. Nevertheless, global campaigns to achieve “legal identity for all” in pursuit of the SDG target 16.9 promote the linkage of birth registration with social welfare entitlements or health service delivery. How might such ‘good practices’ have negative outcomes for migrant families? And what would inclusive and non-discriminatory birth registration look like?

    Dr. Allison Petrozziello will join us virtually from Toronto Metropolitan University to discuss selected findings from her dissertation (and forthcoming book) Birth Registration as Bordering Practice, which garnered the International Studies Association-Human Rights section’s 2024 Best Dissertation Award.

    While our guest speaker will join us virtually, we welcome you to join us on UConn’s campus in Dodd 162, or online via Zoom.
