dc.description.abstract	This paper is a literature review based concept paper. Literature indicates that Africa is on its growth path but it has some challenges to address. In review, continent image has emerged as one such challenge which impacts on competitiveness of African businesses. The potential of diaspora in addressing these challenges is strongly argued. Through review, the need to consider diaspora as a stakeholder is stressed and their active engagement is encouraged. Finally, key questions which may help in clarifying the scope of diaspora engagement and which can contribute in the development agenda for future research are advanced.	en
