Enis Jelassi

Enis Jelassi is a 15-year-old student from Potenza, Italy, who has gained attention for his remarkable achievements in science competitions, culminating in his qualification for the International Science Olympiad in China. Despite his impressive academic performance, including winning multiple regional and national competitions, Enis faces the challenge of not having Italian citizenship, which puts his participation in the Olympiad at risk. Born in Italy to a Romanian mother and Tunisian father, his situation highlights ongoing discussions about citizenship rights for children of immigrants in Italy.
