What Is Included in Your Programs & Projects
DBIA structures two connected layers: Projects (execution vehicles) and Programmes (strategic outcomes). Projects include the Africa Soccer Festival, Diaspora Cultural Exchange, Doing Business in Africa events + database/network access, Elder Series podcast and knowledge preservation, and Import/Export Collaboration facilitation.
These projects feed into two long-term programmes: Social Cohesion through Sport and a Trade & Investment Programme. We manage implementation through milestones, partner roles, reporting cadence, and evidence-based learning loops.
Program design is aligned to SDGs and partner priorities, especially for organizations such as UNDP and IOM.
Typical SDG focus includes Social Cohesion and Peace (SDG 16), Inclusion and Reduced Inequalities (SDG 10), Decent Work and Growth (SDG 8), Partnerships (SDG 17), and Quality Education through intergenerational knowledge transfer (SDG 4).
What are DBIA's current flagship projects under this service?
Core projects include: Africa Soccer Festival (diaspora interaction and engagement), Diaspora Cultural Exchange and Promotion (language, customs, and culture), Doing Business in Africa events and network access, Elder Series podcast and knowledge preservation, and Import/Export Collaboration facilitation.
How do these projects become long-term programmes?
Projects are structured as operational delivery tracks that feed into two programmes: Social Cohesion through Sport and a Trade & Investment Programme. This creates continuity from community engagement to economic outcomes.
Why would UNDP or IOM be interested in supporting this portfolio?
The model links migrant and diaspora inclusion, social cohesion, culture and language preservation, youth engagement through sport, and trade-based livelihoods into measurable SDG outcomes with strong multi-stakeholder partnership potential.
