Mayotte, a French overseas territory in the Indian Ocean, is facing potential changes in its future due to France’s proposed modifications to its constitution that could impact birthright citizenship. This change could discourage potential immigrants from the Comoros Islands and tackle the ongoing migration issues that have troubled Mayotte. As almost half of Mayotte’s residents are nationals from the Comoros Islands, the growing migrant population has added a nuanced dimension to the social tapestry of the island, leading to tensions among locals. The French government’s plan to alter the citizenship law is viewed as an effort to restore Mayotte’s demographic and social balance and foster a harmonious coexistence for islanders while preserving its unique cultural identity.
