Bangladesh study on diaspora philanthropy shows need for closer collaboration between governments and not-for-profits | Asia Pacific Philanthropy Consortium: "his paper for APPC’s Hanoi Conference, Safi Rahman Khan identified several factors that were crucial to the development of diaspora philanthropy in Bangladesh. One was the shifting profile of Bangladeshi migrants—who were once comprised of professionals and skilled workers but who are now largely made up of temporary migrant workers. Another was the very low involvement of diaspora communities in social development in Bangladesh. Khan also cites major hindrances related to the lack of an enabling environment for philanthropy and the country’s unstable political condition."
