- One card, recognised by every house of the family.
- It follows you when you move: your membership crosses borders with you.
- It carries the name of your association, when you belong to one.
- It says nothing about your status, because we never ask.

Your name, an e-mail address and the country where you live. Nothing more. We never ask about immigration or residence status.
How do I receive my member card?
By e-mail, for your phone. We confirm your membership, your digital card follows, and your association, if you belong to one, is linked to it.
What do you do with my details?
We use them to register your membership and to write to you, and for nothing else. We never sell personal data. The privacy notice sets out every detail in plain language.
Can I withdraw?
At any time, and without giving a reason. Write to us and we delete your registration.
Serve with us.
Some members wish to give more than their name. If you have time, a language, a profession or simply the trust of your community, there is a place of honour for you in this house.
Community ambassador in your city
Be the face of this house where you live — in Paris, Brussels, Houston, Dubai, Abidjan, Nairobi or Johannesburg — and the first person a new member meets.
Association liaison
Stand between your professional association, your alumni group or your city association and the regional network.
Interpreter or translator
Lend your languages to a member who needs to be understood: at a counter, on a form, on the telephone.
Guide writer
You know how the tax office, the bank or the land registry really works. Write it down for those who come after you.
Welcome volunteer for new arrivals
Meet a student, a worker or a family in their first weeks and show them the first steps: the SIM card, the transport pass, the bank account.
Professional offering orientation
Nurses, engineers, lawyers, accountants, teachers: an hour of orientation in your field for a member who is starting again.
Offer your time.
Tell us where you live and how you would like to serve. We write to you personally. Serving is an honour freely given, and you remain free at every moment.
You need not be a member to serve, though most who serve are.
Wherever we go, we go together.
Membership is free. One membership per adult; children under 18 are included on a parent’s membership.
