Civic Engagements
IAGB, as a unifying and largest Indian diaspora entity in the New England region, has been lacking in establishing the connects with local US and India government/leadership. Lack of participation from Indian diaspora in local governance plays a big role in missing much deserved recognition of the Indian community at all levels across the state and region. Our mission is to establish those connects and make IAGB more relevant as a critical organization in all civic engagement initiatives across New England and potentially beyond. Giving IAGB a recognition beyond cultural identify that we have so successfully established over the period of time, and making it relevant to not just the immigrants,
Our goal is to make the South Asian American community more equitable and inclusive, so it ensures that the Indian American diaspora’s history and lived experience are recognized as essential to the fabric of America.
