Dóchas Members Handbook
Benefits of being a Dóchas member
Your membership offers a range of tangible and strategic benefits designed to strengthen your organisation, promote collaboration and maximise impact in our shared sector.
We ask that you keep us informed of who your focal points are for the main thematics in your organisation, and update us when there are changes. Please also nominate a main point of contact, and let us know who we should speak to regarding the status of membership, fees and information related to governance matters.
As part of the Dóchas Network, you will be either a Full Member, with your primary focus and spend on international development or Global Citizenship Education (GCE), or an Associate Member, with your international focus and spend making up less than 50% of overall activities.
While the full complement of benefits is open to both in terms of collaboration and representation, as a Full Member you will also contribute to Network governance, holding voting rights on issues such as new Board Directors and constitutional changes.
For a recap on types of membership and criteria, visit our Becoming A Member page and the Dóchas Constitution.
