Tamil diaspora

The Tamil diaspora refers to the global community of Tamil people who have migrated from their homeland in southern India and Sri Lanka. This migration has been driven by historical, economic, and political factors, including conflict and seeking better opportunities. Tamil communities now exist in countries like Canada, the UK, Australia, Malaysia, and Singapore, maintaining cultural traditions, language, and social ties. The diaspora plays a significant role in preserving Tamil identity while also integrating into diverse local societies, contributing culturally, economically, and politically in their host countries.
