Our vision is prosperity and security for all people. Our mission is facilitating diasporas’ role in strengthening humanitarian preparedness, response and recovery.
Established in 2014, Shabaka’s aim is to help fight injustices that leave entire communities disadvantaged, excluded from socio-economic and political progress. This is clear from the conditions of the coronavirus pandemic: ‘business as usual’ is now, more than ever, not good enough; we must not lose time in bringing about equitable change. Furthermore, diasporas—people living outside their countries of heritage—are overlooked by important actors in the existing humanitarian architecture.
