Do you want to join the EFRJ and become a member?

Membership is open to individuals and organisations (government, statutory and non-governmental) who support the general aim of the EFRJ. Full members have voting rights, associate members do not.
To apply for membership is very easy!

Do you wish to register as a new member or renew your membership?

Registering or renewing membership will be available again from February 2020. Currently we are changing our website and our new site will be launched in only a few weeks from now on. Membership registrations and payments will be available there soon! Please note that we have slightly changed our membership fees from this year. Please see details below.

New Membership fees (Applicable from January 1st, 2020) 

In order to aim for a more fair contribution system, the membership fees are adjusted from 2020. The new systems reflects the economical status of the European countries.  According to decision made by the 2019 Annual General Meeting of the European Forum for Restorative Justice (June 4th, 2019, Bilbao, Spain) the following membership fees are applicable from 2020:

	Countries from category A (= GDP above or equivalent to European GDP average)	Countries from category B (= GDP below the European GDP average)
Non-Governmental Organisational Member (regional, national, international)	350 €	200 €
Governmental Organisational	900 €	650 €
Individual Member	90 €	50 €
Student Individual Member*	45 €	25 €

Membership fees are payable for the period between 1 January and 31 December of any year. It is preferable that renewals are done before 15 May. This allows us so to present the actual list of members to the Annual General Meeting (due in June each year). There is no difference in membership fee for full and associate members.

* Since 2016, the EFRJ offers a special discount for students (below 27 years old) who wish to become members! In order to apply for the student fee, students are required to send supporting documents (i.e. scanned copy of the student ID card), together with the registration form, to the EFRJ Secretariat.

Old Membership fees (Applicable until December 31st, 2019) – only for retrospective payments

• Individual member: 45 EUR (for students* the membership fee is only 25 euros!!!)
• Local organisation: 135 EUR
  A local organisation is an organisation that, for example, functions at the level of a municipality.
• Non-governmental organisation (regional, national, international):  195 EUR
  A regional organisation will deliver services at the level of a province or a region. A national organisation has in its mandate the intention to service a whole country, and an international organisation has a clear international mandate.
• Regional, national and international governmental organisation: 675 EUR

If you still wish to renew your membership for the year 2019, contact our Financial Officer, Rik Defrère.
