The stated objective of the organisation is "committed to ending statelessness and ensuring that the estimated 600,000 people living in Europe without a nationality are protected under international law."
Background
Initially hosted as a project of its six founding organisations, the organisation was launched in 2012. In September 2014, ENS registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in the UK.
