Bridge the Gap. Power Africa’s Growth with Your Expertise

Connect. Contribute. Create Impact. Diaspora Corps links skilled Africans abroad with organizations back home that need their talent.

About Us

Diaspora Corps is a platform that connects African professionals in the diaspora with organizations, institutions, and businesses on the continent that need their expertise.

We believe that giving back doesn’t always require relocation, sometimes, all it takes is the right connection. Whether you’re a doctor in the UK, a tech expert in Canada, or an educator in the U.S., Diaspora Corps makes it easy to contribute your skills to meaningful projects back home, virtually or in person.

At the same time, African-based organizations can access a wide network of vetted diaspora professionals for mentorship, strategic guidance, remote collaboration, training, and more. Our mission is to create a reliable, flexible bridge between Africa’s global talent pool and the local changemakers working to build the continent.

Through structured matchmaking and tailored engagements, we make it easier for both sides to collaborate, grow, and create lasting impact.
