! major development: Italian gov restricts by decree transmission of citizenship abroad to 2 generations: From now on if you are born abroad only Italian if: parent or grandparent born in Italy. Or if parent has resided in 🇮🇹 2 yrs before you were born + other restrictions upcoming (see 🧵 & below)

Key Provisions of the Decreto Cittadinanza
Generational Limits: One of the most significant changes under the new decree is the restriction on generational claims for Italian citizenship jure sanguinis. Applicants must now demonstrate a direct connection to at least one Italian parent or grandparent, effectively eliminating claims through great-grandparents. This change ensures that citizenship is granted based on closer and more verifiable ties to Italy.

Centralized Processing Office: The establishment of a centralized office for processing Italian citizenship jure sanguinis applications is another cornerstone of the decree. By consolidating resources and expertise, this office aims to improve the efficiency and consistency of the application process, reducing wait times and enhancing the overall experience for applicants.
This is, for the moment, still not operative for a transitional period of one year.

Increased Application Fees for Italian citizenship jure sanguinis: To cover the administrative costs associated with processing a high volume of applications, the decree has increased the application fees. The fee has doubled from 300 to 600 Euros, with potential future increases to 700 Euros. This adjustment ensures that the application process is adequately funded and can operate smoothly.

Temporary Suspension of Italian citizenship jure sanguinis Applications withing the Italian Consulates: In response to overwhelming demand and backlogs exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the decree has temporarily suspended the scheduling of new citizenship applications. This suspension allows the government to address existing backlogs and streamline the application process for future applicants.

Renouncing birthright citizenship is a major barrier to #naturalization, but how willing are migrants to do so? Using a unique dataset from Italy, E. B. di Belgiojoso & @leortensi.bsky.social examine three key factors: identity, socialization, and reasons for naturalization. doi.org/10.1093/migr...

Over 200 million women, including at least 600,000 in Europe, underwent female genital mutilation. On International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM, let’s be clear: FGM must be universally condemned and eradicated. Together with countries around the globe, we can make it happen ↓ europa.eu/!cqkMDd

A repeating pattern of the phrase "End female genital mutilation now." on a textured, off-white background.
