(DELOCIG)





"Women are leaders everywhere that you look.
They take the risks in order to move forward.
From the singleton to the housewife who manages her family and home.
From the academic to the ‘University of Life’ participants.
From the self employed to the salaried.
Nations were built by strong women, powerful women of mind, body and spirit.
We, as diaspora ladies, will continue to break down walls and defy stereotypes."
Charlotte Cepal


Welcome.

Welcome to this group celebrating diaspora and expat ladies of colour from across the continents, through the Diaspora and Expat Ladies of Colour International Group (DELOCIG).  There is a particularly useful present for you at the end.  Enjoy!  From us to YOU.

Here is where you have the possibility to galvanise, link and enable mutually beneficial opportunities to connect to other ladies of colour:
1. of diaspora and Commonwealth heritage,
2. who are expats; living outside of their birth country.

YOU Inspire. YOU Excite. YOU are Actionable. This is your group of diaspora, expat, ladies without borders.


Ladies of Colour
As a diaspora and expat lady, you are a part of a community of ladies differing in physical attributes and skin hues. You have a varied heritage. You speak different languages, You have varying successful achievements. You are with partners or you are celibate. For example, you may be a lady of colour and married to a Commonwealth man, or a Japanese man, or a Norwegian man, or a Korean man, or a Russian man, or a Turkmenistani man, or a Turkish man, or a Kazahkstani man, or a Polish man, or a Peruvian man, or a Hungarian man; or any other nationality for that matter. You are seeking a group of ladies as like-minded as you, to aid your personal and professional well-being.

Or perhaps you are a lady of colour residing as an expat within Germany, Japan, Finland, Iceland, South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, New Zealand, Malaysia, Thailand, Ireland; or any other nation for that matter, and finding it challenging to form real, genuine relationships with other non Black or foreign expats within your location. Where you may be finding a subtle ‘pecking order’ or ‘social apartheid’ within the expat community that you find yourself within. Where your partner is more warmly accepted, than you are. If that is the case, then you have arrived at the right place to celebrate your individualism and harness mutually beneficial links, with other ladies of colour as like-minded as you, to aid your personal and professional well-being. Or perhaps you are not finding the right calibre of expat community that understands you. That this expat community is not able or willing to integrate or support your journey in a foreign land.

You have a concerning issue
It is possible that you are also seeking a diaspora, expat lady of colour who can help you forge marketing opportunities or assist you in other ways, within the foreign country that they reside within. That you would feel better served by germinating or acquiring a connection to a diaspora, expat lady of colour who can understand you and assist you. Rather than hoping that someone else who bears little or no understanding of your culture or mindset, cuts corners in providing a service and does not provide the professionalism that you had hoped from them, in helping the furtherance of yourself or your business. The same could also be applied to the provision of a product to aid in your furtherance.

You take risks when instigating new relationships. Within your personal life. Within your professional life. The risks that you take are to the best of your ability calculated by you. You understand the benefits and the disadvantages from taking the risk(s).


Accessing the solution
Sometimes you just want to be signposted directly to a synergy of people who can help you. Who can understand you. Who know where you are coming from and where you are looking to go. Sometimes you just want to be helped in the way that feels right for you. Sometimes you simply want to offer help through your experiences and knowledge to others, who are like-minded as you and are lost on their journey through all sorts of distractions.


Who am I?
Juliana Cliff Thorpe is who I am. You can call me JC. I am London, UK born and bred. I am the first female in my family to have studied at a university. I have professional experience within Human Resources and I have worked within the retail sector. I have also assisted in voluntary work for UK charities. I currently live within a suburb of Frankfurt, Hessen, Germany with my partner who is a German national and works in management. Due to my new residence I started a Meet Up group called Frankfurt Ladies of Colour International Group, I have now closed that group and am focusing on using the blogs to co-ordinate events for interested diaspora visitors and members. Feel free to drop by and join me here.

I fully understand what it means to be a diaspora lady living as an expat in a foreign country. Hence, the reason why this particular group was formed. I take nothing away from the other networking groups for Black professionals, Black women or Black entrepreneurs. I simply wanted to create a space where ladies of colour in a particular situation, as a diaspora expat, could connect with other like-minded expat ladies of colour across the continents. Trying to forge ahead in a different country in a different language.


Frankfurt Ladies of Colour International Group
