Summary
This chapter examines categories that are not traditionally considered as vulnerable because there is a recognized protection need, but residence permits on humanitarian grounds become a practical solution where there is not clarity about the type of permits they are entitled to. The chapter examimes the humanitarian and the rights-based justifications to grant residence permits to these categories.
