    Abstract City-level policies affect diaspora members’ right to association, freedom of expression, access to public space and visibility, all of which impact how they build communities and are included or not in the city. Through their associations, diaspora members contribute to the well-being of their community and the cultural life and diversity of the city, despite facing challenges with regard to funding and organizational structure. Drawing on case studies of West African diaspora associations in Paris, Dakar and Tangier, this policy report considers the place of diaspora associations in cities and how city governments can take steps to promote inclusion of these associations and their members.
