1. The problems we are trying to solve
Several people from Marshall Islands are leaving their home country to go to others countries each year, seeking better opportunities, or trying to adjust to life’s challenges and solicitations. Sometimes, brain drain (migration of educated people) is seen as one of the greatest threats against the development of most countries including Marshall Islands. Nevertheless, some developed countries are promoting policies and immigration laws that encourage foreign educated pundits or talented graduate students to leave Marshall Islands to move abroad.
Unfortunately, many Marshalleses are usually disappointed by what they see after moving abroad, and others are disconnected from people and opportunities in Marshall Islands as well as in their new host country. Because of a lack of information or right connections, those who migrate do not always produce the best of themselves or successfully integrate into their new environment. The immigrants from Marshall Islands who succeed often don’t collaborate or network with the newly arriving immigrants or with those who are not reaching their dreams.
At the same time, Marshall Islands would love to find and engage with the Marshalleses living in the diaspora, but this type of relationship is not working well. Besides money they send back to their relatives, the global Diaspora of Marshall Islands do not contribute to the development of Marshall Islands as wished. Those who want to engage in humanitarian, fundraising, or philanthropy activities to give back don’t know how, where, and whom to contact to reach the real needy or to solve the real problems. At the same time, the diasporas of Marshall Islands are usually unknown by many businesses, nonprofits and other organizations with whom they can do business in their country of residence and in Marshall Islands. This global problem impoverishes nations and deprives many organizations from reaching most of their potential market, clients, and customers.
With the increasing rise of crises, wars, and catastrophic events around the globe, migration of the people of Marshall Islands will keep growing and its corresponding problems will get worse if appropriate actions are not taken now. To sustainably solve this problem, a global system must be built where the diaspora associations of Marshall Islands, the people and organizations in Marshall Islands and in the host country of the diaspora can work together to help each other mutually. That’s what we are trying to achieve here via the DiasporaEngager platform!

2. Mission and Vision for the Global Diaspora Associations of Marshall Islands
DiasporaEngager aims at being the world’s premier provider of liaisons between all diasporas, including the global diaspora of Marshall Islands, the people and organizations living in Marshall Islands, as well as the people and organizations in the host country of the Marshallese diasporas, to detect, harvest, and transfer resources, services, and opportunities between people and their nations in a win-win framework. DiasporaEngager is the global diaspora engagement platform that aims at connecting the international diasporas of Marshall Islands to each other and to the diaspora associations of other countries, and to opportunities with governments, nonprofits, businesses, laboratories, international institutions, schools, and research institutions in Marshall Islands and abroad. DiasporaEngager platform assists the global diasporas of Marshall Islands and the organizations in their networks to provide effective working, networking, and development strategies in Marshall Islands as well as in the current country of residence of the Marshallese diaspora.
DiasporaEngager aims at creating and linking all the diaspora networks of Marshall Islands with their corresponding immigrants, and with people and organizations; then, uses this international network as a tool to:
- Mobilize resources and maximize the outcome of networking and cooperation in any area pertaining to the development of Marshall Islands, the Marshalleses, and the nations and organizations involved in this effort;
- Create an international social media platform based on the potential of the global diaspora of Marshall Islands and use that as a strong resource for education, communication, consulting, lobbying, diplomacy, advocacy, benchmarking, capacity building, entrepreneurship, fundraising, investment, business opportunities, and much more, to sustainably improve lives and the development of nations, including Marshall Islands, based on the networks of the professionals of Marshall Islands living abroad and at home.
In order words, we aim at being the developmental social media platform that goes beyond just friendship and networking, by creating an advanced pipeline where living in the diaspora can network and interact:
(a) among themselves according to their country of residence and/or their interest;
