The African diaspora as a strategic lever for transformation.
An undervalued strategic player
The African diaspora, engine of transformation
With more than 170 million Africans living outside the continent, the diaspora represents human, financial and intellectual capital of unprecedented scale. Each year, nearly $95 billion flows from the diaspora to Africa — three times the amount of official development aid.
Beyond financial flows, the diaspora embodies cutting-edge expertise forged in the world's best institutions and companies. GIRA has made the strategic choice to mobilize this network to accelerate the digital and institutional transformation of Africa.
Our diaspora expert network operates in complementarity with local teams. Bringing rare technical skills, international connections and a vision of the continent rooted in daily reality.
