This research looks into what Kuwaiti University students think about the rights of stateless kids, focusing on how much students support these rights. Even though students show strong support, the Education Ministry in Kuwait says stateless kids can only go to school if they have a special ID card. This rule leaves out stateless people who do not have this card, stopping them from getting important services, jobs, and basic rights. The study asked 1135 Kuwait University students for their opinions, aiming to challenge this rule by showing that students really care about the rights of stateless 'Bidoon' kids. The results say that students do not agree with the government's decision made after 1985 that affected stateless people. They maintain that these children should be secure in general and abused. This exploration features how significant it is for policymakers and school pioneers to figure out this problem.
