Toward Effective Diaspora Engagement: Developing a Comprehensive Taxonomy for Diaspora Policies

This study develops a comprehensive taxonomy for analyzing diaspora engagement policies by reviewing the existing literature. It highlights the importance of policy strategies, institutions, and financial mechanisms to channel diaspora resources toward national development. Findings suggest that countries must establish dedicated institutions, grant legal status, and provide financial mechanisms to engage the diaspora effectively. The proposed taxonomy offers a new framework for policymakers to analyze and improve diaspora policies.
