The 2025 edition highlights three key themes:
▫️ Gender equality in citizenship law
▫️ Immigrant inclusion through naturalisation
▫️ Security of status and provisions for citizenship deprivation

Drawing on updated legal information and longitudinal trends on dual citizenship since 1960, the report maps the variety of ways in which states regulate access to citizenship through birth, naturalisation, and loss of status.

The report is authored by the ‪@eui-ggp.bsky.social‬'s GLOBACIT team.

In her legal reasoning, AG Ćapeta cites four publications by Joyce De Coninck, Max Weber Fellow at the Robert Schuman Centre, including her 2024 monograph The EU’s Human Rights Responsibility Gap (Hart Publishing) and a co-authored article with former EUI Law PhD Sarah Tas.

The Opinion addresses Frontex’s legal responsibility in upholding the principle of non-refoulement—a fundamental and non-derogable norm under international, EU, and domestic human rights law.

In a significant development for accountability in EU migration governance, Advocate General Tamara Capeta has delivered her Opinion in WS and Others v Frontex, a Grand Chamber case currently pending before the Court of Justice of the European Union.

A powerful example of how academic research can shape legal discourse and institutional responsibility within the EU legal system.👇
