To explore different angles of diaspora’s engagement in humanitarian assistance, IOM in collaboration with Shabaka, ADEPT and iDiaspora organise a series of free-to-attend webinars.
This third and last webinar will examine the diasporas’ motivations and approaches to engage in humanitarian crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic, exploring generational differences in supporting humanitarian development, crisis prevention and recovery. Panelists representing different diaspora organisations and groups will discuss the gaps and pressure points of the current humanitarian system, as well as diaspora motivations to engage before, during, and after crises.
The discussion will also touch on how to harness the potential of diaspora inter-generational engagement and learning as part of broader approaches to tackling crises that span the humanitarian-development-peace nexus.
