Affiliating with the World Transhumanist Association

Would your organization like to formally affiliate with the WTA?

Organizational Affiliation  Voluntary organizations or corporate sponsors who agree with the Transhumanist Declaration may become WTA affiliates by applying to the WTA Organizational Secretary. Affiliates will be kept appraised of WTA affairs through a designated liaison who will be given non-voting access to the wta-hall list. Liaison's may also  wish to subscribe to the wta-talk list. 

Becoming a Recognized WTA Chapter  Local chapters of the WTA are autonomous, and members of WTA chapters do not have to join the WTA. However, to be recognized by the WTA as a WTA chapter groups must appoint a liaison or liaisons to the WTA and submit a charter defining the goals of the group and the geographic area to be served (if any). Members of the WTA are not automatically members of any local chapters of the WTA, who may have additional membership dues and requirements.
