Full members are self-advocacy or family led organisations that are recognised as having a voice advancing inclusion at a country level.

Affiliate members are any other organizations that work partially or fully on issues affecting people with intellectual disability and their families. They must support our Statement of Unity.

Individual members are any person who shares the values of Inclusion International.

Only full members have a say in how Inclusion International is run.

For example:

• full members can elect Officers and Regional Representatives to be part of the Inclusion International Council
• full members help to set the direction of the organisation by taking part and voting on important issues at our General Assembly and other meetings. For example, adopting our strategic plan and policy positions and approving new members.

For new members, the membership fees are decided by the size of your organisation.

Large, Medium and Small organisations will pay different membership fees.

The final decision about the size of your organisation will be made by our Membership Committee after reviewing your application.
