Welcome to 'Tales of Belonging' — a three-part podcast series where women affected by statelessness in the Netherlands share powerful stories of identity, resilience and hope.

The 'Journeys Through the Dutch Migration System' episode focuses on the legal barriers stateless people are forced to navigate, highlighting how procedural gaps and rigid policies deepen exclusion and delay recognition.

During this episode, you will listen to these terms: 

- IND (Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst) is the government body responsible for assessing asylum and residence applications;

- DT&V (Dienst Terugkeer en Vertrek) oversees return procedures for people who are required to leave the country;

- Gementees (municipalities) handle day-to-day services such as statelessness registration, social support and access to basic rights. 

We would love to hear from you! Let us know what your thoughts and comments are on our social media (Instagram or Facebook) or send us a message at info@statelessrightscollective.nl. 

This is the last episode for now. Stay tuned for more in the future!
