The ways of implication of qualified diaspora from Denmark were discussed at the BRD

Romeo Țurcan, president of the Association of Moldovans from Denmark, professor of innovation and business at the University of Aalborg, together with the Honorary Consul of the Republic of Moldova in the Kingdom of Denmark, Mr. Asser Mortensen and his wife Lucia Mortensen, who also works within the University of Aalborg, were the guests of the Diaspora Relations Bureau (BRD).

The discussions focused primarily on the way to capitalize the potential of the highly qualified diaspora from Denmark, by getting involved in the development of several fields in the Republic of Moldova. In this context, the BRD team mentioned the need to provide expertise and the intention to develop a functional mechanism in this sense for the central public authorities.

Our guests were also interested in the opportunities of the Thematic Grant Program „Diaspora Engagement Hub”  for the purpose of organizing cultural events in Denmark. A pleasant surprise for the guests was the information about the DOR Program "Diaspora Origins Returns", being impressed by the fact that children from the diaspora have the opportunity to get to know the traditions and history of the Republic of Moldova, through the DOR.

The head of the BRD, Nadejda Zubco, expressed her joy to see our compatriots again, noting the openness of collaboration in order to realize some common initiatives. And because we are in the midst of preparations for the Diaspora Days, Nadejda Zubco launched the invitation to participate at the Diaspora Congress and the Diaspora Business Forum, coming up with the suggestion to mobilize Moldovans from the Kingdom of Denmark to register for these two events on the platform www .congresuldiasporei.gov.md.
