While the Makonde arrived from Mozambique to work in the 1930s.</p> <p>However, when Kenya gained independence in 1963, these communities ended up without a nationality.</p> <p>The Pemba, a fishing community from Zanzibar who settled along Kenya's coast, were among those unable to register as Kenyan citizens after independence.</p> <p>For decades, these communities lived on the margins - generations deprived of basic rights because they lacked legal documents such as birth certificates or national identity cards.</p> <p>They could not go to school, visit a hospital, get a job, obtain a mobile SIM card, open a bank account, register a business, or rent or buy a house.</p> <p>Many pay middlemen to use their names to obtain fake IDs, register for exams or obtain a mobile phone number.</p> <p>"A single document has the power to determine the fate of your entire life," said Dube, recounting how she was prevented from sitting her primary school exams because she did not have a birth certificate.</p> <p>Following the launch of the #IBelong campaign in 2014, UNHCR partnered with charities in Kenya to understand how many people were stateless and support their path to recognition.</p> <p>This has involved years of outreach work - from awareness campaigns to encourage people to register as stateless so data could be collected, to organising and mobilising communities to petition parliament.</p> <p>In 2016, Kenya granted citizenship to more than <a href="https://www.unhcr.org/ke/10581-stateless-becoming-kenyan-citizens.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">1,100 people from the Makonde community</a>.

Many struggle with a lack of skills, the cost of education and discrimination in the job market and in accessing services.</p> <p>"I think the general perception is that you get your piece of paper, you get your ID, and everything is perfect," said Andrew Ochola, Haki Africa's acting executive director.</p> <p>"But uplifting stateless communities cannot happen overnight. There are many challenges that persist," he said.</p> <p><em>(Reporting by Nita Bhalla.
