Diaspora support for healthcare, TOKTEN/MIDA 2013-2014
In 2013, The UNDP Transfer of Knowledge through Expatriate Nationals (TOKTEN) and IOM Migration for Development in Africa (MIDA) programmes delivered a joint TOKTEN/MIDA project in Chad, implemented by the IOM. The project deployed 19 members of the Chadian diaspora residing in France in partnership with the diaspora-led Group for Higher Education and Health in Chad Groupe d’entraide à l’Enseignement Supérieur et à la Santé au Tchad (GESST) to strengthen the capacities of institutions and actors in the health and higher education sectors in the country.
