Organizational membership

Who can join?
We welcome membership applications from professional organizations and institutions in the group therapy, group processes and related fields.

Benefits
Organizational affiliates become members of the Consultative Assembly of Organizational Affiliates (CAOA). Through the Chairperson of the CAOA, who is a Board member, affiliate concerns are represented at IAGP Board meetings. Affiliates are invited to send a representative to CAOA meetings and to participate in the CAOA online discussion forum. (Please contact our CAOA Chair: Mona Rakhawy (Egypt) [email protected] if your organization is not yet represented on our online discussion list.) Organizational affiliates receive a copy (one per organization) of IAGP publications, and their organization is listed in our Website and in the membership directory. For details of our affiliate organizations, please click here.

NB: Members of IAGP’s affiliate organisations, including their IAGP representative, do not automatically become individual IAGP members. They are strongly recommended to also take out individual IAGP membership (separate payment required), so that they can join Sections and obtain other benefits of individual IAGP membership.

Fees
Fees for organizational affiliates are calculated pro rata based on membership numbers and geographic location of the organization. The IAGP has adopted the World Bank’s rating of country income (To find out about the World Bank Atlas method, please click here). For details of the IAGP’s country banding, please see here). Dues for affiliate organizations for 2019-2020 are as follows
