As a non-profit institution serving global civil society, it is UIA’s Active and Associate Members who form the backbone of our endeavours.
Since our foundation in 1907, our members and supporters have been dedicated individuals and organizations with a keen interest in international cooperation, communication and assembly. They are united in the belief that a global civil society organized to promote international cooperation, peace, security and sustainability is for the benefit of all.
Active Membership with the UIA is an honorary position restricted to individuals who wish to advance the development of global civil society and who have already contributed significantly and over a long period to the international organization community. As trustees our Active Members further the interests of the UIA each in his or her own sphere of activity.

Associate Membership is open to a number of different entities – foundations, institutions, corporate or industrial bodies as well as NGOs and INGOs or individuals – who want to support the UIA’s ongoing efforts and benefit from our offers and services. Depending on the institutional form of the applicant, we offer different membership categories – three options for industry entities, one for organizations listed in our Yearbook of International Organizations, and one for individuals or corporations wishing to become a UIA Supporter. Every category comes with a defined set of advantages, providing privileged access to our publications and services, and the opportunity of participating in the UIA’s Associations Round Tables.
