In this edited volume, leading scholars and experts explore the extraordinary potential of diaspora communities in driving economic growth, shaping foreign policies and fostering global connections with India s approach, offering a compelling case study. In an increasingly interconnected world, diasporas have emerged as powerful agents of change. This book delves deep into this phenomenon, and analyses how diasporic communities can become dynamic catalysts for development. It spans eleven insightful chapters, from India's strategic outreach to its global diaspora, to in-depth case studies of Indian communities in South Africa, the Gulf, Reunion Island, and Fiji. It goes further to examine unique models of diasporic engagement from around the world such as the 3x1 Program of the Mexican diaspora in the U.S., the activism of the Hindu American Foundation, and the understated yet impactful Malagasy diaspora. With comparative insights from the Philippines private sector engagement and Ethiopia s diaspora policies, this book unpacks the complex interplay between migration, identity, and development. Comparing India s journey with other global examples, this book offers crucial insights for policymakers, scholars, and development professionals. It serves as a practical guide for democratic nations with market economies seeking to tap into the immense potential of their own diasporic networks.
