Membership applications are not currently being accepted. We're reviewing how membership works following the amalgamation of our two founding organisations.

InterAction

Membership of the Intersex Peer Support Australia (IPSA) program remains open for people with innate variations of sex characteristics, and family members. Take a look at membership options on the IPSA website.

We welcome new members, as individuals and organisations interested in supporting systemic advocacy and policy work in Australia and internationally! Please note that membership is not required in order to benefit from our work. InterAction is not an organisation that represents membership: we see our role more as a centre of expertise, and our services and our media group are open to non-members.

Membership is open to intersex individuals, and non-intersex supporters, resident in Australia. Supporters can include non-intersex individuals, organisations and institutions. We also have an honorary membership category.

People born with intersex variations may become individual members. There’s no requirement to be “out” and visible, nor active. We recognise that everyone is different and our individual capacity changes over time. Members interested in a greater level of involvement and activity may wish to become part of the board.

Non-intersex people and organisations may become associate members, organisational members or corporate members.

Our board of governance reserves the right to review and decline a membership application.

Important note regarding memberships: Membership does not mean that the member person, organisation or institution may speak on behalf of InterAction. Institutional membership, if granted, must not be taken to indicate or imply inclusive practice or good practice.

Membership fees are $10 for individual intersex members, and $20 for supporting associate members. Please contact us for information on organisational and corporate membership fees.

Membership fees can be paid using PayPal, via our donation page.

From July 2016, memberships will be periodic, in accordance with the company constitution.

Rates for renewing members, as of July 2016, are as set out in our constitution:

Individual: $10
Associate: $25
Organisation (NGO): $50
Corporate member: $500
Honorary: nil

Membership renewal fees can be paid using PayPal, via our donation page.
