The TANTSOROKA HO AN’NY DIASPORA (TADY) project, funded by the French Development Agency (AFD) for a value of seven million euros over four years, supports the implementation of the Madagascar diaspora engagement policy implemented by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Madagascar. Its overall objective is to support diaspora engagement for socio-economic development. To achieve this, the project is based on three distinct components: (1) technical assistance to the local administration, (2) activities to support the engagement of the diaspora in local development as well as (3) research and capitalization contributing to the continuous improvement of the project and strategic management.
