DICOTA Invites you to Share Your Work in Tanzania.

You are invited to share a short profile of the important work you are doing in
Tanzania as a diaspora. This work could be a project(s) implemented by an
individual or organization, which could be a non-profit or for-profit organization.
Why?
We are increasingly realizing that we, the Tanzania Diaspora, are making
remarkable and noteworthy contributions in the motherland. We recognize diaspora
engagements extend beyond remittance to friends and family. However, the extent
of these “non-remittance” contributions ─ in the form of business investments,
charitable giving, development projects, etc. ─ is not well understood among our
fellow Tanzanians at home, our government, and even amongst ourselves.
The purpose of this survey is therefore, to understand and develop an inventory
of diaspora engagements in Tanzania. This survey will inform on-going efforts,
championed by the Diaspora Council of Tanzanians in America (DICOTA), to
strengthen engagement and collaboration in the diaspora community, as well as
leverage the intellectual and financial capital of the Diaspora in engaging in
significant, long-term and sustainable project initiatives where we are and at
home. We also hope such understanding would contribute to an inclusive and
conducive diaspora policy in the future.
Click here to complete this brief 5-10 minutes survey to share the profile of your
work in Tanzania by December 17, 2017.
Should you have any questions, please email dicota@dicotausa.org.
Thank you for your cooperation.
