Description
For this third MIEUX Action in Togo, the Togolese Inter-Ministerial Committe on Migration & Development together with the NGO Visions Solidaires requested support in the diaspora organisation FOSED (Forum Socio-Economique de la Diaspora) in its Diaspora Forum).

Overall, through this Action, the partners aimed at engaging diaspora communities with their country of origin, and in encouraging partnership building with relevant public authorities, private sector and civil society organisations.

Togo III contributed to initiating framework for dialogue and cooperation between the diaspora and State actors. It also contributed to inform the diaspora of the major State priority projects, as well as invite them to increase its engagement in national development for the long term.
