The Malayali Diaspora refers to the Malayali people who live outside their homeland of the Indian state of Kerala and the Union Territories of Mahé, India and Lakshadweep.^[18] They are predominantly found in the Persian Gulf, North America, Europe, Australia, Caribbean, Africa and other regions around the world.

Loka Kerala Sabha

The Loka Kerala Sabha is an assembly hosted by the Government of Kerala to bring the Malayali diaspora under one platform.^[19] It was hosted under the Department of Non-Resident Keralites. It aims at utilizing the expertise of NRKs for developing Kerala as a state. The Loka Kerala Sabha is proposed to happen once in two years.^[20] The event was inaugurated by the Chief Minister of Kerala, Pinarayi Vijayan.^[21]
