Sistema Europe is an open network that exists to encourage any organisation or individual with an interest in European Sistema-inspired activity and/or the wish to know more about Sistema-inspired work in Europe. For this reason, we try to keep our membership fees as low as possible.
Sistema Europe currently has three types of members:
(1) Network Members
Network membership entails the least obligations. Network members are not required to pay any membership fees and, thus, do not possess any voting rights, yet they are members of the network. Network members are visible on the Sistema Europe website and are able to attend network meetings and to receive Sistema Europe communications.
The board decides on the appointment of network members. European Sistema-inspired programmes that wish to join the network should apply in the first instance to the vice president & treasurer of the Sistema Europe Board.
If you wish to contact our vice president & treasurer, Maria Majno, to enquire about becoming a network member, simply let us know via our Contacts Page or by emailing us at info@sistemaeurope.org.

(2) Association Members
Associate members comprise those programmes that most fully participate in the work of the Sistema Europe Association. Associate members pay a membership fee determined by the association's Annual General Assembly, and in return possess voting rights at all association meetings. As is the case with network and individual members, they are members of the Sistema Europe Network, visible on the Sistema Europe website and are able to attend network meetings and to receive Sistema Europe communications.
The board decides on the appointment of associate members. European Sistema-inspired programmes that wish to join the Association should apply in the first instance to the vice president & treasurer of the Sistema Europe Board. All associate members are automatically also network members. Current membership fees for associate members are €100 per annum for small and medium sized programmes and €500 for larger programmes, as agreed between programmes and the board.
If you wish to contact our vice president & treasurer, Maria Majno, about becoming an associate member, simply let us know via our Contacts Page or by emailing us at info@sistemaeurope.org.

(3) Individual Members
Individual members are people who may not be a part of a Sistema-inspired programme or who simply want to have their own membership of the network. Individual Members pay a significantly lower membership fee than associate members and thus do not possess any voting rights, but they are members of the network. Individual members are visible on the Sistema Europe website (unless they wish to choose to be anonymous) and are able to attend network meetings and to receive Sistema Europe communications.
The board decides on the appointment of individual members. Individuals who wish to join the network should apply in the first instance to the vice president & treasurer of the Sistema Europe Board. All individual members are automatically also network members. Current membership fees for individual members are €50 per annum. Individuals wishing to pay more than €50 may wish to become individual supporters.
If you wish to contact our vice president & treasurer, Maria Majno, about becoming an individual member, simply let us know via our Contacts Page or by emailing us at info@sistemaeurope.org.
