Famillage rules: All you need to know about membership in our global village.
From Feb 17 to April 4, 2021 we have a special welcome for families in lockdown with many children:
Join the club and get an additional free year for every child!
MATCHING TALENT WITH OPPORTUNITY SINCE 2009 |
The world has many global villages; ours is dedicated to families, their partnerships and their opportunities.
Families from all over the world and from all walks of life get together here. They have strong common ground: Other languages, viewpoints and cultures, better education, international dialogue and the opportunity to give each other access to the world. They grow up with wider horizons. |
MEMBERSHIP: |
Join the community and connect - around the corner and around the world!Mothers and fathers, grand-, step- or fosterparents can join; single parents are welcome.
We welcome all open and global minded parents regardless of social background, race, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability. Membership is always awarded to the entire family and includes all generations. Global Native families establish partnerships through sincere and open communication. What we do is "slow networking". This takes time and consideration, dedication and commit-ment. In return, it cuts expenses and multiplies choices. Our kids take two decades to grow up, so we can take our time. For this, we have to be certain on three elemental factors: We verify identity and residence of every applicant.Applying families must declare their goals and intentions.We ask for your pledge of personal commitment. |
Cost and value: The famillage concept works best based on continuity. Family partnerships take time to build trust and to develop. This is why loyal members pay decreasing fees. Benefits multiply with the growing number and diversity of our members, therefore fees for newcomers increase annually: there is better value for it every year.
There is no advertising and there are no commercial interests. All services are exclusively funded by membership fees.

Within our community, the Euro is the strongest and most frequently used currency. The annual fee for 2021
is set at € 252, the equivalents in USD and GBP are frequently adjusted to reflect current exchange rates. |
And finally some more relevant information: |
There’s a guarantee ...
There's a purpose ... There is commitment ... |
Sometimes circumstances change unexpectedly. You may find that your reasons for member-ship are no longer valid or (it has not happened before, but you never know) you cannot establish a meaningful partnership with a suitable family. If this were the case we will of course return the aliquot part of your annual fee. 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 a week. There is no handling fee and there are no catches. 50% of all membership fees go directly into grants within the community.
The other 50% go into running the organization, school & research projects and scientific cooperation with international experts. Membership fees empower us, they drive the programs we've designed to inspire curiosity and wanderlust, and they finance the support we offer to make global citizenship and education available across borders. You find more information here: "Fare Play" grants, the highly popular (and efficient !) "Shared Mindspace" project and the entire opportunity kitchen agenda.
We do not offer free trials.
The great wealth of information we offer you here* - without the need to register - covers every aspect of The Global Natives 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 a call for considerable commitment on both sides, the kind of commitment we don't associate with freebies. . |
