Guidelines for Engaging Diasporas’ Economic Contributions for Sustainable Development
Migrant and diaspora contributions, whether human, social, cultural, or economic, play an important part in the development of both countries of origin and destination. Migrant and diaspora economic contributions specifically are key to achieving many development goals. The importance of remittances is well understood in meeting the needs of households and receiving communities. Diaspora investment, particularly when combined with migrants’ human and social capital, contributes to sustainable economic development at both national and local levels.

Diásporas na vanguarda da proteção social: impactos, dinâmicas e oportunidades futuras
Os estados são responsáveis por fornecer proteção social aos seus cidadãos e, em um contexto migratório, são os países de destino os principais responsáveis. No entanto, as limitações na cobertura e acesso dos migrantes deram origem a uma infinidade de medidas informais, incluindo aquelas oriundas de comunidades transnacionais e diásporas que sustentam famílias e comunidades por meio de redes pessoais, garantindo acesso a cuidados de saúde, educação, aposentadoria e segurança social.
