European Union Diaspora Facility (EUDiF)

EUDiF is the first EU-funded project that works towards fostering an informed, inclusive and impactful diaspora-development ecosystem on a global scale. EUDiF seeks to generate and consolidate knowledge, host dialogue and take action to address the fragmentation of diaspora engagement for development by assisting countries of origin, diaspora organisations in Europe, and the EU to engage and collaborate more effectively with each other on development issues. EUDiF also provides capacity development support to partners and has a pilot mechanism to facilitate direct support to countries of origin from diaspora professionals in digitalisation, education, entrepreneurship, environment and health. EUDiF is funded by the European Union’s Directorate-General for International Cooperation and Development (DG DEVCO) and implemented by the International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD).
