Diaspora For Development of Cape Verde (DIAS de Cabo Verde)

The Dias De Cabo Verde project (Diaspora for Development of Cape Verde), was initiated by the Cape Verdean Institute of Communities, with IOM as the main implementing partner. It aimed at mobilizing the human, social and professional resources of Cape Verdeans living abroad towards the capacity-building of key development sectors in Cape Verde, such as health, education, infrastructure and tourism. It promoted and reinforced the ties between members of the diaspora and the public and private sectors both in Cape Verde and Europe while contributing to the strengthening of transnational linkages of the Cape Verdean Diasporas in Portugal, Italy and the Netherlands. The project was funded by the European Commission and co-funded by the Portuguese Cooperation.
