Statelessness of Children born to Venezuelan Parents in Colombia: Lawmaking without Convincing Policies. Entramado [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.2, e11.  Epub 27-Oct-2023.

This article examines the Colombian legislation against statelessness issued due to the humanitarian emergency in Venezuela in recent years. There have been three waves of Venezuelan migration: the first, in 2005; the second, in 2017; and the last wave, from 2017 to the present day. For this analysis, it was used a qualitative socio-legal method adopting a descriptive approach. The paper affirms that, despite the efforts of Colombian entities to regulate the statelessness of minors born to Venezuelan parents, these regulations contain legal vacua due to a lack of communication between the different State bodies. Such void causes legal contradictions and legal uncertainty in the national system, and, subsequently, violates in a direct manner the fundamental rights of children born to Venezuelan migrants in Colombia.

Palabras clave : Statelessness; nationality; international agreement; State; legislation; migration; Childhood.
