Eritrea gained independence from Ethiopia in 1993 after a long struggle, and since then, it has faced various challenges, including political isolation and economic difficulties. The Eritrean government emphasizes the importance of national unity and development, often engaging its diaspora to support these efforts. Events like the seminar in Stoke-on-Trent aim to strengthen ties with nationals abroad and encourage their involvement in the country’s progress. The diaspora plays a crucial role in Eritrea’s development through remittances and advocacy.
