Diaspora Advisory Board

The Diaspora Advisory Board was created following the first historic Biennial Jamaican Diaspora Conference. The Board is an advisory body to the Minister with responsibility for Diaspora Affairs and represents a bridge between the Government and the Diaspora Communities. The Board meets with the Minister at least twice per year, along with the Diaspora and Consular Affairs Department, to consider issues pertinent to the overseas community and the broader engagement process.

The Board comprises members representing the main Diaspora locations; the United States of America, Canada and the United Kingdom. It is anticipated that as the movement grows that other Diaspora regions such as Africa will be represented on the Board.

The Board members are selected by their peers in the Diaspora locations and appointed by the Minister for Diaspora Affairs. The members of the Advisory Board serve a two year term, with an option for re-election.
