The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the substantial measures taken by EU and OECD countries to prevent the spread of the virus are having direct and indirect impacts on international students coming to those countries. While the long-term consequences are difficult to predict, the immediate impacts are already visible, for example, the processing of new applications or renewing of residence permits has in many cases been hindered or suspended, with consequences for international students already present in the host country. In addition, the abrupt downturn in economic activity has had a significant impact across many sectors, with international students facing the loss of their part time jobs or reduced or lost incomes, which could have an impact on their ability to continue their studies or find a job or start a business following their graduation.

L'apatridie est un phénomène mondial qui touche environ 3,9 millions de personnes dans le monde. Le nombre estimé de personnes qui étaient soit apatrides, soit de nationalité indéterminée dans l'Union européenne plus la Norvège, était de 399 283 fin 2018. En 2017, 2100 enfants étaient enregistrés comme apatrides en Europe, soit une multiplication par quatre depuis 2010. Pour ces personnes reconnues comme étant apatrides, adultes et enfants, que signifie cette reconnaissance en termes d'accès à la résidence, aux droits, à la pension alimentaire ou aux documents de voyage? Comment l'apatridie est-elle déterminée? Un nouvel Inform du réseau européen des migrations (EMN) met en lumière la situation actuelle dans les États membres de l'UE et en Norvège.
