Why Nationality Rights Matter
Millions of people across Asia and the Pacific continue to face exclusion because they are denied nationality, lack legal identity, or remain invisible within governance systems. These barriers can restrict access to education, healthcare, employment, mobility, legal protection, and meaningful participation in society. For many, exclusion is not caused by a single law or policy, but by overlapping systems that fail to recognize their rights and belonging.
Nationality For All (NFA) works to address these systemic barriers by strengthening affected-person-led advocacy, building evidence for change, supporting more inclusive legal and governance systems, and fostering collective action across the region.

Statelessness Encyclopedia Asia Pacific (SEAP)
The Statelessness Encyclopedia Asia Pacific (SEAP) is NFA’s flagship knowledge platform and one of the most comprehensive public resources on statelessness, nationality rights, legal identity, and exclusion in the region. Designed as an accessible and evolving digital platform, SEAP brings together comparative information on laws, policies, affected populations, treaty body recommendations, and emerging issues across Asia and the Pacific. The latest edition expands SEAP’s focus to include digital identity systems and civil registration, recognizing the growing impact of governance technologies on communities at risk of exclusion. SEAP serves as a practical resource for advocates, researchers, policymakers, civil society organizations, and affected communities working to advance evidence-based advocacy and more inclusive systems across the region.
