How To Become a Member
National public health associations that wish to apply for membership are asked to review WFPHA’s Constitution and By-Laws and the Membership information contained in this section of the website to be sure that they are qualified for membership. After reviewing the information, the association should complete a WFPHA membership application. Applications should be returned to the Chair of WFPHA’s Membership Committee, Mr. Francisco Cabo, at fvcabo@intra.co.mz
Membership Information
Full Membership is open to national public health associations that meet three criteria:
1. Multidisciplinary composition, as distinct from concern with a single occupation or specialty.
2. Status as a nongovernmental organization, although individual members may be government employees.
3. Recognition as the national public health association of the country, thereby representing all of its public health workers.
Annual dues are US$100 base dues plus US$0.20 for industrialized countries and US$0.10 for other countries multiplied by the number of members in the association.
Regional Membership is open to federations of national public health associations and/or of schools of public health of a geographic region. Regional members promote the objectives of WFPHA within their region. Regional members pay no dues and are represented at meetings as observers.
Sustaining Membership is open to organizations and individuals that endorse the principles of WFPHA and desire to contribute financially to its support. Sustaining members may not hold office or vote on policy decisions. Annual dues are US$1,000.
