All about MEMBERSHIP:Global Natives are responsible for the upbringing of least one child, they are mothers and fathers, grand-, step- or foster parents; single parents are very welcome here too. They are family.
The purpose of their membership is sincere and friendly communication to establish partnerships. We have no restrictions in regard to gender, race, religion, nationality or age. What unites us: we want chances and opportunities for the next generation and synergies for a better future. |

Before you apply for membership please understand the nature of our community!
What we do is slow networking, it is not a one-off service or an arbitrary product for purchase. This takes time and consideration. It requires dedication and commitment. Your kids take about two decades to grow up, so we need not rush into things. But we want to be absolutely certain on three elemental factors : Verified identity and residence.
Clearly defined interests and intentions.
Pledge of personal commitment.

Once you're a member you have the certainty that you are part of a community united by mutual respect,
genuine dedication and a passionate belief in global cooperation (more information here). It's worth the effort.
genuine dedication and a passionate belief in global cooperation (more information here). It's worth the effort.
Once you're in it is easy.
That's why it's not easy to get in.

Free and easy access for all? Quite the opposite makes sense.
A lot of time can be wasted in cyberspace. For free web services it can be difficult to manage qualities like honesty, truthfulness, reliability, discretion and all the other human factors that ensure decent and sustainable dialogue between people. "If the product is free, you're the product being sold." Quality of language and content matter. Any chat-room of your choice will demonstrate how much nonsense is being written online every day. That's “the price of free”. About our membership fees: |

GlobalNatives.Org and GlobalNatives.Club are
free of advertising. They will remain this way. We take great care to ensure authenticity and privacy, safety and efficiency and an ongoing improvement of quality of service.

The concept of fruitful co-operation needs continuity.
It requires time to build trust and to allow for gentle development. This is why loyal members pay decreasing fees. Benefits multiply with the growing number and diversity of members, the network’s potential gains impact and reaches further. This is why the fees for new members increase annually: there is better value for it every year. |

There’s a price and a prize ... There’s a reason ... There’s a quarantee ... There's a purpose ... There is commitment ... |
Standard: Membership has a price - you pay an annual fee. The alternatives: Membership is a prize - it can be awarded. ......................... Either: Check out the schoolpal project to find out how ! .................................................Or: try this ... The membership fee and the thorough (if a bit lengthy) verification process are an essential "commitment-filter" for authenticity, reliability and genuine engagement.
Nobody should ever be part of our network who does not truly want to be.
To ensure this we give an unconditional money-back guarantee: At any given time we return the aliquot part of any fee paid to “I-do-not-wish-to-continue” members. All we ask is that you take half an hour of your precious time to write down why you want to terminate your membership and give at least one serious suggestion of potential improvement. Whatever your reason may be: of course we want to know about it but we shall never argue the point. Whatever sum remains unused at this point of time will be transferred back to you within 72 hours. There is no handling fee and there are no catches. Even if after a year of active membership you feel your child has not benefited in any way (although you've tried to make it work out) we will reimburse you. We have offered this to every new member ever since we started off in 2009, it has never been claimed so far. Membership fees empower us, they drive the programs we've designed to inspire courage and wanderlust and they finance the support we offer to make global citizenship and education across borders available. You find ample information under the "Action" tab; the "Fare Play" grants, the highly popular (and efficient !) "Shared Mindspace" project and the SchoolPal agenda.
We do not offer free trials.
The great wealth of information we offer you on this website covers every aspect of The GlobalNatives.Club's work and potential. We feel it is sufficient to help you decide if this is for you and enough to judge if what you expect and what is expected of you will tally up, both for you and for your family. Once you have taken a deliberate decision to join there is call for considerable commitment on both sides, the kind of commitment we don't associate with freebies and free trials. . |
