Join the association

Your seat at the table is ready.

If you're a student from Anjouan studying in Uganda — or about to be — this is where you belong. Membership means support, friendship, and a community that shows up.

What membership gives you

Not a card, not a number — a family that has your back from the day you arrive.

People who get it

Students from the same island, the same language, the same culture — you don't have to explain who you are. You just belong.

Help when it matters

Exam prep, arrival support, welfare emergencies — the association shows up when things get hard, not just when things are fun.

A voice in the association

Vote in elections, raise concerns at assemblies, and stand for any elected office. Membership means having a say.

Gatherings worth showing up to

Iftars, community dinners, football matches, career workshops — events that feel like home, not obligations.

Two ways to belong

Full membership for Anjouan students, honorary membership for well-wishers — both defined in the constitution.

Full Member

Open to all students of Anjouan origin studying in Uganda. You register with the association, accept the constitution, and receive a membership ID. You can vote and stand for any elected office.

Apply as a full member

Honorary Member

Open to well-wishers who support ASAIU's goals and respect its constitution. Accepted by majority vote of the executive committee. You uphold and support the association as a valued ambassador.
