Our work is supported by the generosity of members who have seen first-hand the life-changing impact of our work on scholars and students worldwide. 

We believe money should never be the reason why someone cannot participate in the Society of Transnational Academic Researchers (STAR). If you would like to join but truly cannot afford it, then you qualify for free membership. We grant all requests. No questions asked.
