Africa-Europe Development Platform – AEDP
Diaspora organizations in Europe have increasingly gained in importance. In order to achieve their goal of enhanced cooperation in countries of origin, and to play their role as development actors, required framework conditions need to be guaranteed. Effective network dynamics and activities are best managed on a permanent platform, setting structured grounds for a competent delivery of relevant and appropriate context specific services to diaspora organizations, countries of destination and countries of origin. This platform-building is at the core of the Africa-Europe Development Platform (AEDP) project.

Contesto |
Increasingly, national development agencies in countries of origin and international organizations engage diasporas directly for projects of international cooperation, based on their shared interests in harnessing the development of countries of origin. One of the key challenges is to widely link diaspora organisations so that they can strive for their development goals in a co-ordinated and more efficient manner. |
Obiettivi |
The goal of this project is to improve framework conditions for Diaspora organisations; this is expected enhance the cooperation potential of the African diaspora in countries of destination for sustainable development in countries of origin. The establishment of an all-encompassing African Diaspora Platform in Europe is regarded as an essential element of such framework conditions. |
Gruppi target |
The ultimate beneficiaries of the program are African countries of origin, benefitting from the development impact through cooperation with their diasporas in Europe. African diaspora organizations in Europe will benefit from specific strengthening of their capacities for co-operation, effectively building their potential as actors of development.

Risultati |
Risultati fasi precedenti: A Europe-wide diaspora network was established through the facilitation of constant face-to-face expert meetings and training workshops under the lead of four major diaspora consortium partners and the International Center for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD). However, activities and services were mainly separately delivered by the consortium partners, causing problems to an effective operational management of the network. Therefore, efforts are to be invested into the establishment of effectively functioning structures. Clearly defined responsibilities and a transparent communication system figure as key factors for ensuring the sustainability of the network. |
