Advocacy
CoM has an advocacy unit focusing on the different issues related to access to justice, citizenship and civil documentation. CoM has organized different strategic advocacy activities on the draft Bangladesh Citizenship Bill currently being considered at the Bangladesh Parliament. If passed by the Parliament, the Bangladesh Citizenship Bill will replace the 1951 Citizenship Act. The provisions in the Bill will create new situations of statelessness and perpetuate statelessness for some populations. CoM has organized a workshop, a roundtable, a press conference and a live radio show as advocacy strategies on the draft citizenship bill..
