Citizenship plays a larger and more critical role in the life of children than it should. Children who lack citizenship are incredibly vulnerable to exploitation. In the migration context, a child’s citizenship can be largely determinative of where and with whom a child lives. Despite a modern children’s rights framework that recognizes the humanity and autonomy of children, citizenship and nationality still form an integral part of a child’s identity and play a critical role in a child’s development. It has a pervasive impact in securing other rights for children and can be a central factor in a child’s cultural and linguistic background, education, economic and environment exposures, and virtually all aspects of a child’s daily life. This chapter examines children’s right to citizenship and explores the ongoing crisis of statelessness that undermines these rights. It reviews the role that citizenship plays in both voluntary and forced migration of children, child-specific protections found in both universal and regional human rights frameworks, and the role of children’s citizenship in promoting family unity.

Educational Paths

Starting from the concept of social justice and from universal children’s rights (UN, 1989), the contribution questions the role of education in enhancing the originality and uniqueness of each one and in restoring responsibility and dignity to fragile (Milani, 2019), difficult (Bertolini ,1993) and deviant (Vico, 1988) young people. In a complex contemporaneity, tested by pandemic’s sufferings and restrictions, the pedagogical look underlines the importance of reconstructing – starting from school – promotional, capacitating and justice-oriented paths. Deviant acts are read in the light of a broad social responsibility. We propose the empowerment of an educating community (Agazzi, 1968) aimed at participation, dialogue (Freire, 2002) and assumption of an active and inclusive citizenship. The juvenile penal system is collectively rethought, favouring diversion from prosecution, mediation, reparation and probation strategies.   Giustizia e devianza minorile dopo la pandemia Covid-19. Percorsi alternativi tra promozione scolastica e rieducazione.   Partendo dal concetto di giustizia sociale e dai diritti universali delle bambine, dei bambini e degli adolescenti (UN, 1989), il contributo si interroga sul ruolo dell’educazione nel valorizzare l’originalità e l’unicità di ciascuno e nel restituire responsabilità e dignità ai soggetti fragili (Milani, 2019), difficili (Bertolini, 1993) e devianti (Vico, 1988). In una contemporaneità complessa, provata dalla sofferenza e dalle restrizioni della pandemia, lo sguardo pedagogico sottolinea l’importanza di ricostruire, a partire dalla scuola, percorsi promozionali, capacitanti e orientati alla giustizia. Si rileggono gli atti devianti alla luce di un’ampia responsabilità sociale e si propone l’empowerment di una comunità educante (Agazzi, 1968) volta alla partecipazione, al dialogo (Freire, 2002) e all’assunzione di una cittadinanza attiva e inclusiva per ripensare collettivamente il sistema penale minorile privilegiando deviazioni dall’accusa, strategie di mediazione, di riparazione e di messa alla prova.
