2. Membership

The term "membership" refers to the state or status of being a member of a particular group, organization, or network. It signifies that an individual has been accepted into and has become part of the specified entity, usually by meeting certain criteria or fulfilling specific requirements.

In the context of various groups or organizations, "membership" entails certain rights, privileges, and responsibilities that are granted exclusively to its members. These can include access to resources, participation in decision-making processes, voting rights, attendance at meetings or events, and other benefits or opportunities specific to that group.
