The Ministry of Diaspora is a government department in Montenegro responsible for fostering relations between the state and its expatriate communities worldwide. Its mandate focuses on preserving the cultural and linguistic identity of emigrants, protecting their rights, and promoting economic, educational, and scientific cooperation with the homeland. The ministry was officially established in July 2024 during a cabinet reshuffle under Prime Minister Milojko Spajić, elevating the former Directorate for Cooperation with the Diaspora to a dedicated ministry.
