| Abstract: | ‘The Gozitan Diaspora’ paper is the very first attempt ever in our nation’s history to present scientific, data driven, thoroughly researched estimated information as to how many people of Gozitan origin live around the world. Global Gozo with 410,000 Gozitans who live outside Gozo makes Gozo one of the world’s tiniest set of islands which has one of the highest Diaspora world-wide. Besides the numbers which are crucial, this paper talks about what these numbers can mean economically to the Gozitan homeland and its people - what the many successful Gozitans around the world can contribute in win-win situations to elevate Gozo’s economy to highest never achieved or ever-imaginable before. It brings to light that the Gozitan nation is far larger than we imagine, an international people with global outreach and incredible potential. |
