Over the past decades, the Nepali community abroad has become one of the most dynamic diaspora populations in the world. Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries have been the favourite destinations for Nepali unskilled and semi-skilled labourers for many years. Over that, the number of skilled Nepali professionals and students is constantly growing not only in English-speaking destinations such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada, but also in continental European countries where local language proficiency is often essential for employment. With free or nominal costs for education and a fair employment policy, of late, Germany is becoming a favourite destination for Nepali migrants. Traditionally, the Nepali community in Germany was associated largely with gastronomic ventures for long. But in recent times, Nepali nurses and caregivers are immensely contributing to Germany's health care system. Moreover, Nepali academics, managers, and entrepreneurs are making a strong mark in Germany's academic and corporate sectors. The recent data shows that there are more than 10,000 Nepali professionals in Germany, and the number is growing. It has been observed that Nepal's statutory relationship with its thriving diaspora community in Germany, the so-called diaspora diplomacy, is still not up to the mark. The Nepali Embassy in Berlin does not have official data of Nepali citizens living in Germany. In addition, an unanimously accepted diaspora organisation is lacking in Germany as the partisan non-resident Nepali Association (NRNA) has not been able to comprehensively unite the Nepali community. Hence, a sustainable and inclusive diaspora diplomacy from the government is urgently needed in Germany as well as throughout the world. On the contrary, the government is planning to shut down 44 diplomatic missions abroad due to financial constraints – a sheer ignorance to the diaspora diplomacy. Diaspora diplomacy is defined as the diplomatic approach of a government towards building and strengthening well-structured connections with its citizens abroad so that migration remains a two-way beneficial relationship rather than a one-way loss. With a long experience in the policy-making level in diaspora diplomacy in Germany, I have observed that countries like Albania, Kosovo, and India have established a well-structured diaspora diplomacy. These countries do not consider their immigrants as pure 'brain drain' or an easy source of remittance. Instead, these countries have implemented policies to accept their diaspora as an extension of the nation itself and a national soft power that facilitates investment, implements new skills, and establishes global networks. The Nepali diaspora has immensely contributed to the economy of Nepal as the remittance contributed to almost 29% of GDP last fiscal year. Other than the financial aspect, Nepal has yet to fully recognise the academic, social, and entrepreneurial contributions of its citizens living and working abroad. Doing so requires a coherent policy anchored in diaspora diplomacy. In 2019, a Brain Gain Centre (BGC) was established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) but with omnipresent political instability, this noble initiative has not yet been able to function optimally. However, the coming days seem promising as the current government has vowed to establish a sustainable diaspora framework. Accordingly, the government has launched an annual diaspora bond programme worth Rs 100 billion. The government has also pledged preferential investor status for Non-Resident Nepalis (NRNs), and promised constitutional reforms to secure citizenship, property, and voting rights for Nepalis living abroad. This is a step forward in diaspora diplomacy. The role of embassies and diplomatic missions abroad is crucial in implementing diaspora diplomacy. Hence, the Embassy of Nepal in Germany must recognise this growing opportunity and coordinate with MoFA to develop and implement policies that establish and strengthen diaspora engagement as a catalyst for Nepal's comprehensive development. For that, a dedicated European diaspora strategy, with a particular focus on Germany as a key hub for Nepali professionals, students, and entrepreneurs, should be developed. In addition, regular Nepali professionals' summits should be organised to facilitate structured and constructive dialogues among the Nepali professionals that would discover mutual channels for investment and knowledge transfer. Diaspora diplomacy is not merely a one-way initiative of the government but a mutually beneficial channel of diaspora engagement. Hence, if the government of Nepal takes the initiative, German development agencies, academic institutes, chamber of commerce, and NGOs will contribute to structured migration partnerships in an organised way. In addition, Nepal-focussed social organisations such as, Nepali Samaj e.V. and the German Nepal Friendship Association (DNG) are individually contributing to strengthening diaspora engagement in Germany. The recently founded organisation – Nepali Roots e.V. – has also stepped in the footprints of these legendary diaspora organisations. Hence, the government of Nepal should collaborate with these and other similar social organisations to strengthen diaspora diplomacy in Germany and in Europe. It is definitely the time to act as a new and sustainable government has been formed in Nepal. For that, the embassy in Berlin should not only engage itself with customary cultural events and community gatherings but should also work towards bringing the Nepali diaspora organisations under one umbrella and motivate and facilitate Nepali professionals in contributing towards Nepal's prosperity.
