diaspora-development ecosystem
Who we are
EUDiF is a pilot project funded by the European Union’s Directorate-General for International Partnerships (DG INTPA) under the Development Cooperation Instrument. The pilot phase ran from June 2019 – June 2024, with a second phase running June 2024 – September 2027. The project is implemented by the International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD).
How we work
EUDiF seeks to consolidate knowledge and action to address the fragmentation of diaspora engagement for development. We assist diaspora organisations in Europe, countries of origin and the EU to engage and collaborate more effectively with each other on development issues.

Our knowledge
At EUDiF, we believe that sharing knowledge is essential to maximise the potential of diaspora engagement for sustainable development. We generate and organise our knowledge by location, theme and practice, and make it all available for free.

Diaspora expertise
In the first phase, a specific mechanism Diaspora Professionals 4 Development was used to recruit and deploy Europe-based diaspora professionals in actions to support short-term development projects in countries of heritage, including in Ethiopia, Moldova and the Philippines. Diaspora professionals also supported many of the actions under the Capacity Development Lab. In the second phase of the project, capacity development is not separated in the same way, but diaspora expertise is prioritised across all activities.
