Abstract (EN)

This study examines the accessibility of civil documentation and fundamental human rights for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), Families with Perceived Affiliation to ISIS (FPAs), and children of Yazidi survivor women (former ISIS captives). The primary focus is on women and children in the context of displacement in Iraq, especially in the aftermath of the 2014 ISIS crisis. The study aims to understand how perceived affiliation with ISIS hinders IDP women and their children from accessing civil documentation and public services. The examination is conducted within the framework of both international and national laws, using the concept of 'intersectionality. Through this concept, the study highlights the unique challenges experienced by women and `children with perceived affiliation to ISIS as well as Yazidi survivor women, and their children The study argues that imbricated barriers such as community rejection, fear of retaliation, financial constraints, and security concerns due to the perceived affiliation to terrorist groups create a complex web of obstacles for displaced FPA women to access civil documentation for themselves and citizenship for their children. Furthermore, the study argues that gender intersects with religion, contributing to unique forms of disadvantages and violence against Yazidi survivor women. The lack of documentation impedes these individuals' ability to prove their identity and enjoy basic rights such asfreedom of movement, birth registration and education, healthcare, and the establishment of legal rights to their property. Moreover, it exposes children to the risk of statelessness. Overall, the study reveals that the discriminatory practices against women and these children, all of which hinder access to essential civil documentation, expose them to further marginalization, discrimination, and exclusion from society. Keywords: Civil Documentation, ISIS, Families with Perceived Affiliation to ISIS (FPAs), Intersectionality, Gender, Internally Displaced Persons.
