In 2011, the UNHCR estimated there are around 12 - 15 million stateless people worldwide, although it’s difficult to correctly estimate that number since most countries that have stateless populations do not keep accurate records.
In this latest audio podcast, the MIPJ examines this issue with photojournalist Greg Constantine and Washington DC correspondent, Sean Mullan, produced/hosted by Leigh Barrett. Greg Constantine is a Pulitzer Center grantee for Statelessness: A Human Rights Crisis.
