Aid cuts and the diaspora: strengthening partnerships to bridge the gap

Cuts and reductions in international humanitarian aid, driven by shifting political priorities in major donor countries and an increasing number of displacements, are leaving hundreds of thousands of communities in the Global South at risk. The Somali Regional State in Ethiopia exemplifies the severe impact of these funding cuts, as vulnerable communities are now confronted with shrinking external support for basic needs. In this context, diaspora groups and networks are a key source of support to their communities. Their contributions extend beyond individual remittances, encompassing collective emergency relief, and development support such as education, water and health for displaced and other crisis-affected people. This policy brief elaborates on the role of diaspora networks in leveraging home and host country community networks to fill the gaps in areas where aid and government services fall short. However, despite their impact, diaspora groups face barriers to maximising their potential. Among these are a lack of enabling policy and institutional frameworks, complex state–diaspora relations, and a lack of formal structures among the diaspora networks. All this can limit the scope, effectiveness and capacities of diaspora support to communities back home. As a result, the following policy recommendations for the Ethiopian federal government and the government of the Somali Regional State, along with their development partners, are put forward in this brief to enhance the potential of the Ethiopian-Somali diaspora:
• Create enabling policy and institutional frameworks at regional and local levels that recognise and support the collective engagement of the diaspora with crisis response and recovery of vulnerable communities. This includes one-stop liaison units at the regional and local levels to minimise the bureaucracy and streamline diaspora contributions, incentivising diaspora-funded initiatives and ensuring inclusive consultations with the diaspora to ensure the effectiveness of these institutional and policy frameworks.
• Establish an umbrella association that represents the interests of the diaspora in the Somali Region and provides a range of supportive services to the diaspora that will enhance their engagements in emergency response, recovery and development.
• Facilitate exchange, partnerships and collaborations between diaspora-led and diaspora-supported associations and networks, national and local authorities, and international actors to maximise the reach and effectiveness of diaspora-led initiatives.
• Expand the evidence base on the various forms of collective support of the diaspora networks and associations to better understand the scale, impact and best practices for informing planning and programming to enhance diaspora support.

US-Greek relations — September brief by the Transatlantic Periscope

ELIAMEP - Wed, 10/22/2025 - 10:11

The Transatlantic Periscope is an interactive, multimedia tool that brings together expert commentary, high-quality media coverage, official policy documents, quantitative data, social media posts, and gray literature. It will provide on a monthly basis a summary of the most important news concerning the Greek-US relations, as reflected in the media. Below you will find an overview for September 2025.

On September 11, 2025, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis met with the United States Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, at Maximos Mansion. During the meeting, the two confirmed that Greek-American relations remain at an excellent level. Particular emphasis was given to further strengthening cooperation in the energy sector. Prime Minister Mitsotakis stressed the strategic nature of Greek-American relations and defense and energy cooperation between Greece and the US. He also pointed out that Greece, with the initiatives it has undertaken and the infrastructure it is developing, is becoming an energy hub in the Eastern Mediterranean and Southeast Europe, an energy exporter and a provider of energy security for the entire region. He also emphasized the strategic importance of electrical and digital interconnections, making special reference to the Great Sea Interconnector project (GSI) between Greece, Cyprus, and Israel, as well as Greece-Egypt power interconnection initiative (GREGY). He also expressed to Secretary Burgum the critical importance of a route connecting Alexandroupolis with Odessa, following a proposal he had made during his visit to Odessa in June. During the meeting, the role of Greek shipping in transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) was also discussed.

Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis (NY-11) applauded the inclusion of her bipartisan legislation, H.R. 2510, ‘The American-Hellenic-Israeli Eastern Mediterranean Counterterrorism and Maritime Security Partnership Act of 2025’, in the State Department Reauthorization bill advanced by the House Foreign Affairs Committee on September 18. The measure, introduced with Congressman Thomas Kean (NJ-07), Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-05), and Congressman Dan Goldman (NY-10), establishes a security-focused “3+1” framework among the United States, Israel, Greece, and the Republic of Cyprus to enhance counterterrorism and maritime security. The provisions strengthen this partnership by creating new parliamentary and executive-level cooperation groups; launching two security training programs, CERBERUS, focused on counterterrorism at the Cyprus Center for Land, Open Seas, and Port Security (CYCLOPS), and TRIREME, a maritime security program at the Greek Souda Bay Naval Base; and modernizing the decades-old U.S. arms embargo on Cyprus by temporarily lifting restrictions on defense exports, reexports, and training cooperation, contingent on Cyprus meeting U.S. security and regulatory conditions. This allows for targeted capacity-building that enhances the island’s ability to conduct regional security operations.

On September 18, the United States Senate confirmed Kimberly Guilfoyle as US Ambassador to the Hellenic Republic, marking the culmination of a months-long process that had attracted considerable political attention. In her statement following the vote, Guilfoyle underlined both the professional and symbolic weight of her appointment, stressing the honor of serving as the first female US Ambassador to Greece. On September 29, Guilfoyle was officially sworn in as the next U.S. Ambassador to Greece at the State Department in Washington, D.C. According to diplomatic sources, Guilfoyle is expected to arrive in Athens in late October, where she will officially assume her new duties.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis met with Kimberly Guilfoyle, during a diplomatic event in New York, on September 25. Both Mitsotakis and Guilfoyle were attending an event hosted by the Atlantic Council focused on strengthening ties between the European Union and the Gulf states. On the same day, Greek Minister of Environment and Energy, Stavros Papastavrou, also held a meeting in New York with Guilfoyle.

Des proches de Boni Yayi se font passer pour des « Sages » de Parakou

24 Heures au Bénin - Wed, 10/22/2025 - 09:36

Dans la journée du 21 Octobre 2022, une vidéo a fait le tour des réseaux sociaux. On y voit des personnes d'un certain âge dénommées « Sages de Parakou » qui ont lancé un appel aux sept (7) sages de la Cour constitutionnelle . Une démarche qui s'inscrit dans la paix en cette période électorale. Mais à y voir de près, lesdits sages ne sont que des militants du parti LD. Après verification, ces derniers ont toujours été aux côtés du président Boni Yayi lors de ses sorties publiques à Parakou . En témoigne les photos prises lors des obsèques de feu de feu Fataou Adjibi à Parakou en septembre dernier.
