Mainstreaming diaspora for development with capacity building and expert deployment

Expert log-in

How we work

EUDiF offers support to public institutions of partner countries and diaspora organisations based in Europe. In the pilot phase (2019-2024), this was via 16 capacity development actions. In the second phase (2024-2027), EUDiF continues to provide capacity development to public institutions, whilst introducing grants for diaspora organisations, as well as providing practice exchange and learning opportunities to both.

All partnerships are demand-driven, co-developed and sustainably designed. They centre the added-value of diaspora engagement for development, including through use of diaspora expertise.

With public institutions

Public institutions in partner countries and regional organisations are invited to apply for capacity development support. Our first call for proposals is open until 15 October 2024.
Capacity development support provided by EUDiF is demand-driven, small-scale and strictly skills and knowledge-oriented.
EUDiF does not provide: grants/subsidy, soft and hard equipment, infrastructure, permanent/regular staff costs.

With diaspora organisations

A grant for diaspora organisations will be launched in late 2024.
Information on the application and evaluation procedure will be shared on the website.
In addition, a course on project design will be piloted in November 2024, with additional training resources to be made available in the course of 2025.
