This Is Who I Am is a project for recognizing the identity of vulnerable children - touching upon the core of children's citizenship rights.
If you loose your passport, identity document, birth certificate…
How do you prove who you are?
Millions of children worldwide are unregistred - and as a result stateless:
Without nationality or identity they are not included in official statistics - they basically do not exist and do not have any protection.
This Is Who I Am is an ambitious project aimed at providing children who are unregistred with an identity, proof that they do exist, that they do have a background, a history.
Knowing Children will soon put up a website that provides further information and ways to scale up the project to recognize the identity of undocumented children.
