Catalonia uses its diplomatic web to promote sovereignty cause

Diplocat was launched by the Catalan regional administration in February 2013 as an 'amateur diplomatic corps' comprising volunteers who wish to help the Catalan government explain and forment the sovereignty process in an international context. Diplocat is funded publicly through the Catalan regional and provincial administrations and it is expected to use the 34 commercial missions and five political delegations that Catalonia already has around the world.
