Dominican diaspora

The Dominican diaspora refers to people of Dominican origin who live outside the Dominican Republic, often due to migration for reasons like work, education, or better opportunities. This global community maintains cultural, social, and sometimes economic ties with the homeland. Significant Dominican populations can be found in countries such as the United States, Spain, and other parts of Latin America and Europe. The diaspora influences both their new communities and the Dominican Republic through cultural exchange, remittances, and ongoing connections, shaping a dynamic, transnational presence.
