The United Macedonian Diaspora will work on a new agenda for Macedonia-Diaspora relations and involvement in the continuity of the Macedonian Diaspora together with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Agency of Emigration of the Republic of Macedonia. We invite the Macedonian Diaspora to be partners in the great success story that is Macedonia. Macedonia is the center of our common Macedonian being, of our identity and our heritage, and your contribution and involvement are as essential as ever. At the same time, Macedonia must find ways of working together with you to ensure the thriving continuity of the Macedonian people. Macedonia and the Macedonian Diaspora as one people will master the formidable challenges of a new era. Visiting Macedonia, sending your children for education there, investing in Macedonia, and above all documenting your family history, are the ways and means to ensure Macedonian links and Macedonian identity.

Now is the time to make a difference with a permanent office in the US capital. Those who oppose the UMD’s objectives already have such offices, with staff working full-time to push the anti-Macedonian agenda.
