  • Description: Other than remittances, diaspora philanthropy has emerged as a practice that may contribute to local development. This paper presents an overview of diaspora philanthropy by Filipino migrants: it identifies the dynamics between migrant-donors and recipients in the Philippine end, it outlines the actors involved in diaspora philanthropy, and it provides examples of development projects supported by migrants. The paper concludes by suggesting areas for further research.
