affiliated members

Affiliated members are individuals or organizations that are connected to a larger group or association but may not have full membership status. They often share common interests or goals with the main organization and might benefit from certain privileges, such as access to resources or events. However, they typically do not have voting rights or the same level of influence as full members. This arrangement allows them to participate in the group’s activities and initiatives while maintaining some degree of independence. Examples include professional networks, academic institutions, or community organizations.
