"Exploring the Potential of the Israeli Model: A Comparative Analysis of Azerbaijani and Israeli Diaspora Efficiency and its Implications for the Azerbaijani Diaspora's Future Activities"

Diasporas play an essential role in shaping global politics, economics, and culture and in
light of the development and efficiency improvement of Azerbaijani Diaspora this paper aims
to analyze challenges that Azerbaijani Diaspora faces. The study has revealed that
Azerbaijan has a great potential to improve its Diaspora through the implementation of world
practices. The study poses solutions for each challenge - establishment of an organization,
creating a climate for better lobbying, creation of digital tools for awareness purposes. All
these solutions are evaluated according to five main criteria such as effectiveness, efficiency,
equity, feasibility/implement ability, and flexibility/improvability. The research includes
secondary data from various sources and semi-structured interviews with experts in the
relevant field. The analysis and assessment show that each problem should be addressed
separately and solutions presented in the paper should go in parallel. Each of the solutions
elaborates on a specific issue, which can be successful if implemented together. While the
creation of a stronger community focuses on the challenges related to absence of legal
framework, better lobbying changes address the political issue. Lastly, communication
challenges that arise in the globalized world should be dealt with in order to be able to
implement the previously mentioned problems.
