Diaspora Connect

“Diaspora Connect” reflects the desire born from Howard University, Universidad del Valle, and Universidad Tecnológica del Chocó to support and uplift students of African descent in pursuing and completing higher education and providing them with a transformative international experience. In this exchange program, students will be able to explore the spectrum of Black identities beyond their own, through elements of dialogue and recognition of each other’s different historical backgrounds and current realities, to strengthen their leadership skills and build bridges across the diaspora.
