Membership Application
Thank you for your interest in joining the AI Impact Alliance and the Art, AI, Law & Society Resource Cluster.
Membership is key to the cluster's platform sustainability and it facilitates collaboration and knowledge sharing with other members. We rely on the support of the academic and civil society communities to share expertise in an inclusive, independent and high-quality setting.
We invite you to complete the short questionnaire below, upon receipt our Selection Committee will study your request and get back to you as soon as possible.
As a quick reminder, these are the different types of memberships.
- Professional artists and cultural workers: $10.
- General membership: $250.
- Arts and culture organizations and civil society organizations working in the fields of human rights, social and climate justice, support for democracy or any other field that would enrich the platform: between $75 and $250.
- Research Labs and Institutes : between $2500 and $5000. With management approval, exceptions may be made to accommodate institutes with smaller budgets (see Community Partners).
- Ambassadors: open to individuals and organizations, requires approval or invitation from management: ranges from $5,000 to $10,000. Donations are accepted, but please note that we do not have charitable status.
- Community Partners: For organizations that don't have the financial capacity to support us financially, but have significant expertise or perspective to contribute, we offer the opportunity to be a Community Partner. This involves giving us visibility on the organization's platforms and proactively promoting our fellowships, workshops and other key publications or events. This is done by invitation and may be subject to certain limits on participation in working groups.
Other Ways to Support

We will open to academic organizations at a later time.
