Zim gets IOM backing to engage nationals abroad

ZIMBABWE has received support from the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) to capacitate officials working on engaging nationals living abroad.

The initiative was realised within the framework of the projects on Southern African Migration Management  and Streamlining Diaspora Engagement to Catalyse Private Investments and Entrepreneurship for Enhanced Resilience funded by the European Union and the African Development Bank.

In a statement, IOM said a study visit in June supported the Zimbabwean government’s efforts to review and enhance the implementation of its National Diaspora Policy (2016).
