Diaspora Engagement Strategy

Executive summary

The purpose of this document is to outline DRC’s strategic foundation to engage with diaspora and articulate our ambitions - how and why we do it, and what we aim to achieve.

DRC considers diaspora integral civil society actors that we work with, as part of our overall approach to civil society engagement. Therefore, DRC’s strategy on diaspora engagement is a reflection of DRC’s Global Civil Society Engagement Strategy and is aligned to its overall intervention logic, normative framework, principles of engagement and change processes.

It places DRC’s interventions with and for diaspora within DRC’s overall strategic frameworks, towards achieving DRC’s mission to assist refugees and the displaced, protect their rights and empower them towards a better future, in pursuit of a dignified life for all displaced.
