‘Elevating Voices, Empowering Lives’
Summary:
The term diaspora women refers to women who have migrated or are descendants of those who have migrated from their country of origin to a different host country.
They often navigate complex intersections of identity, encompassing their cultural heritage, gender roles, and experiences as migrants or members of diaspora communities.
The goal of this project is to create a supportive environment that honours their rich cultural backgrounds while promoting financial and cultural empowerment, equality, and a sense of belonging in their adopted countries.
Our Mission:
In the tapestry of our diverse society, diaspora women stand as vibrant threads weaving stories of resilience, creativity, and strength. Our mission is to illuminate and amplify these voices, creating a dynamic cultural, social and economic space that celebrates the rich intersectionality of diaspora experiences among women.
Our Vision:
A world where diaspora women are recognised as pillars of strength, where their stories, cultures, and talents are not only acknowledged but embraced as essential threads in the fabric of our shared humanity.
Our Values:
- Intersectional Empowerment:
Acknowledge and empower diaspora women at the crossings of gender, culture, and migration, recognising the unique strengths that arise from these intersections. Advancing intersectional empowerment through financial and cultural inclusion and fostering entrepreneurial spirit to reach agency and independency.
2. Cultural Appreciation:
Encourage appreciation and understanding of diverse cultures, languages, and traditions. Fostering an environment of mutual respect and collaboration.
3. Inclusivity in Leadership:
Promote and support diaspora women in leadership roles across various sectors, ensuring their voices contribute to shaping policies, institutions, and cultural narratives.
4. Global Solidarity:
Foster connections and collaborations with diaspora women globally, recognising the universal aspects of their experiences and leveraging collective strength for positive change.
Join us in the celebration of diaspora women — where diversity is not just acknowledged but celebrated, and where the collective strength of these women becomes a source of inspiration and empowerment for generations to come.
