ILGA World membership: New year, new fees!
ILGA World provides its member organisations with access to a global and regional network of over 1800 organisations working towards a stronger LGBTI movement. It is our membership who leads the organisation, and shapes the direction of our work.
New year, new fees!
From 2023 onwards, ILGA World will implement a new membership fee model, taking into account the suggestions from our members.
During the 2022 ILGA World Conference, our members approved the resolution regarding the adoption of a new fee structure.
The new structure consists of a sliding scale of fees based on the organisation’s annual budget. Through the payment form sent via email, each member organisation will be able to choose the fee that best fits its financial status, and ILGA World will not ask for any budgetary documentation.
At ILGA World, we understand that organisations might face challenges to their financial stability, no matter the functioning of their country´s economy. Therefore, our new membership fee structure bases fees on the financial stability of the organisations, and not on the division between high or low-income countries as in the previous model.
The tables below illustrate the sliding scale fee model:
Full members:
| Annual budget (in CHF) | Annual membership fee (in CHF) |
| Under 10,000 | 10 |
| Under 50,000 | 30 |
| Under 100,000 | 60 |
| Under 500,000 | 120 |
| Under 1 million | 200 |
| Over 1 million | 300 |
| Over 5 million | 500 |
Associate members:
| Annual budget (in CHF) | Annual membership fee (in CHF) |
| Under 10,000 | 300 |
| Under 50,000 | 300 |
| Under 100,000 | 300 |
| Under 500,000 | 300 |
| Under 1 million | 300 |
| Over 1 million | 400 |
| Over 5 million | 600 |
We thank our members for once again helping us to improve our work and make our “queer democracy in action” a reality. Our member organisations will receive information on payment of annual membership via email later this month. More information on membership can be found on our website page.
