Welcome to The Diaspora Academy
This isn't a program - it's a movement!
A transformative experience designed for diaspora changemakers and diaspora-focused institutions seeking to make positive impact on a global scale.
Whether it's courses, consulting, coaching or public speaking - we are here to help you maximize your diaspora impact!
LEARN MOREAre You A Part of the Diaspora?
Being in the diaspora is a deeply personal experience. It's much more than your lineage or family name.
It's about your own relationship with your adopted and ancestral homelands, even if you've never been able to visit.
It's about having a commitment and consciousness to connect or become connected to your ancestral homeland, and to use your time, talent and treasure to shape positive outcomes, both here and there.
As a diaspora leader, you know the immense potential that lies within our global communities.
We possess an amazing wealth of knowledge, skills, and resources. But so often, we lack the support, guidance and investment we need to turn our ideas into tangible results.
That's why I created The Diaspora Academy - to bridge the gap between diaspora passion and impact.

My Story
Meet Semhar Araia
As the daughter of Eritrean immigrants born in the United States, I was raised with the spirit of a proud diaspora advocate, community member and servant leader. I learned firsthand about the impact and influence diaspora communities have in shaping global events, from wherever they lived to bring peace and promise around the world.
My goal is to show you just how powerful diaspora partnerships and strategies can be for your life - in business, community, policy and social impact. I can't wait to meet you!
