IFIH’s Functioning
1. IFIH is structured around three groups :
·
a core group of founder
members, who include academics, writers, artists, journalists, intellectuals, scientists,
environmentalists and social workers ;
·
a general group of
individual members, from India or abroad, supporting the Forum’s
objectives ;
·
a group and network of
institutions and organizations whose aims are entirely compatible with the
Charter.
2. Individual and institutional members, from India or
abroad, have to pay a nominal yearly or life membership fee. (A reduced rate is
available for students.) Click here for details of membership fees.
3. IFIH’s coordinating body consisting of a few active
members takes care of the practical tasks. A charitable trust has been
registered for administrative purposes and is applying for standard income tax
exemption.
4. For ease of communication, IFIH has a moderated
egroup ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ifih ) restricted to
its members. Upon receipt of their membership fees, new members will be added
to the egroup if they wish.
