Acoustic Ecology Institute Memberships

From 2004-2010, AEI offered annual memberships. However, this membership program attracted only a modest number of people, since AEI is much more oriented toward generating useful information for all, than either spurring our members to action or providing them with special publications. As of 2011, AEI no longer offers annual memberships, but we do encourage you to support us in other ways.

In effect, AEI Memberships became a way for site visitors to donate small amounts of money to support out work. This was very appreciated, I can assure you! While our general operating expenses are covered by annual gifts from a few generous supporters, AEI's ability to attend important workshops and conferences depends on all the other donations we receive, from $30 to $1000.

But to streamline our operations, AEI no longer "sells" Memberships. Instead, we encourage you to make a donation once or more a year, as the spirit moves you.

You can also sign up to receive our periodic email updates, with or without making a donation!
