e-Membership - Liberty Victorian Council for Civil Liberties

e-membership - Civil Rights Advocates



What?


This is a project designed to give people like you a chance to become directly engaged in the protection of civil liberties in Australia.
e-membership is not membership of Liberty Victoria*, strictly speaking, because we wanted to keep the cost down. But it will be one of the most effective ways to become involved in the work of Liberty Victoria.


Why?


Increasingly, people at university or in their first few years in the workforce are concerned about civil liberties in Australia. We regularly get emails and letters from people asking: "What can we do...?" The e-membership project aims to show you what you can do, and help you do it.

How?


By becoming an e-member, and providing Liberty Victoria with some basic information about your skills and interests, you can participate as a Civil Rights Advocate in various ways. If you want to become and e-member, please complete the
e-membership Application Form

Cost?


e-membership costs $10. We accept payment by:
* Cheque (please make cheques payable to 'Liberty Victoria'); and
* Visa / Mastercard (please include your cardholder name, card number, card expiry date and signature).

* e-membership does not carry voting rights nor are e-members subject to Committee approval.
