New enough, long enough. Generally well-written, though a fragment-length section could use improvement. A fresh article on an interesting subject, though, so I'll say good for DYK.
No copyvio from earwig (nor from my reading of the source for the hook, I'm not sure if the tool picks up papers). Hook fact is interesting, though I would take out "local stakeholders" - it's a rather vague (though accurate) term and not as interesting as trying to get the diaspora interested, for me. And being concise will make the hook more easy to digest. This isn't necessary, of course. Fact is cited in-line and source checks out, though I don't expect everyone will have access so a limited access parameter should probably be added to the cite template. @
Lajmmoore: QPQ needs to be done, I'd donate one if you'd be happy to have someone else review it (but it would then need yet another person to promote it).

Kingsif, thanks very much
MeegsC would you be willing to donate a QPQ like you'd offered previously? No worries if not. I'd also be happy with the changes suggested in the hook.
