Becoming a member

Are you an active or aspiring leader in your professional field? Are you acutely aware of the contributions of both law enforcement and public health to community safety and well being? Are you keen to join a community of diverse people, from disparate fields and different countries but with similar aspirations, skills and interests, all working to find a common language and common goals? 

With GLEPHA membership you will help to fulfil your own and GLEPHA’s aims, to embody the values we work towards: equality, inclusion and respect. Membership of this global network will provide you with contacts, resources and events that will be vital to your work. And GLEPHA membership fees are kept low. to live our values and include everyone, whatever their circumstances.

Our membership form will ask you a few questions, such as what country you’re participating from and your interest areas. This information is so that we can learn about you to better plan events, foster collaborations, and build a stronger network which works for you, your colleagues and your communities. Filling out the membership form should only take a few minutes. You will then receive formal membership notification and a welcome letter.

 And be assured, we take your privacy seriously. All information is secured, is strictly for our professional use, and will not be shared outside GLEPHA.

Membership fees

There are four levels of individual membership. All individual memberships are for one year only. Institutional memberships are for one or two years.

An inclusive fee structure

GLEPHA is aware of the value and power of inclusion. We recognize the constraints that some individuals have in paying the membership fee. From May 2024 we have revised the fee structure based on an honour system and hopefully the four individual categories will enable everyone to join GLEPHA.
