The document is designed to support the initiatives that promote the national identity, including cultural and linguistic values, and to also improve communication between representatives of the diaspora and the authorities and to ensure their involvement in the development of public policies.

To implement the agreement, the International Organization for Migration will allocate US$200,000 worth of grants.
