How to become a member?

01

Check eligibility

Make sure your organisation supports citizen initiatives in global solidarity with funding, training, advice and/or networking.

02

Read and agree to the Founding Statement.

Review the network’s founding statement internally. Confirm your organisation agrees to it.

03

Write a short formal letter (on letterhead if possible) that includes a formal statement that your organisation supports the founding statement.

04

Send the letter to the secretariat

Afterwards, the letter has to be accepted by the current members. When it’s accepted, your organisation is invited to participate in meetings of different working groups, depending on its specific interests. All organisations obtain membership of the coordination group which has the role of the board of the network until the network conference where the network will formalise its structures.

If you have any questions, please contact our temporary secretariat.

The capacity building working group focuses on training activities that are organised by the members to strengthen the capacities of CIGS.

The funding working group exchanges practices on processes and procedures for funding of CIGS and their development activities in the global South.

The research working group unveils valuable insights in the CIGS communities and their relevance for sustainable development and in mobilising the public to engage in international solidarity.

The coordination group undertakes action in European matters of relevance for CIGS or for the members of the network. This is the management and the organisations of the network as a whole.
