Home page intro
Migrants and diaspora communities are recognized for their invaluable role in society due to their rich cultural contributions, diverse voices, and their economic contributions to the countries they live in and come from, including philanthropy, entrepreneurship, and innovations. iDiaspora provides a platform to share your voice, to gain knowledge, and to engage with the global community committed to the importance of diaspora.
Global Photo Exhibition on Entrepreneurship for Migrants and Refugees
IOM in partnership with UNCTAD and UNHCR will host a photo exhibition at the Global Entrepreneurship Week that visualizes the contributions of migrant and refugee entrepreneurs to their host and origin countries.
The Rationale
iDiaspora Can Help You Respond to Emergencies
Dear Anonymous,
We know there is nothing worse than being far away from your friends and family when a disaster strikes. It may be difficult to find information about what is really going on on the ground and sometimes we are frustrated because we want to help but we don’t know how. To try and help our community deal with these situations, we’ve built a new page into iDiaspora to help respond to emergency situations.

Contribute
There are many ways to give back but its not always easy to find an outlet for our efforts. iDiaspora aims to link those that want to make a difference with concrete opportunities to forge a better future.
Diaspora engagement has to potential to become a practice of choice for the public and private sector. We need to narrow the gaps in connectivity, knowledge and opportunity between these sectors to realize this potential. I sense iDiaspora is an important step-change in this journey and is a platform I look forward to seeing flourish.
