The UNWG-Geneva is managed by a team of volunteers. Membership is open to women connected by work or family relationships with the United Nations, its Specialized Agencies, other International Organisations in Geneva and Permanent Missions.

Women who are not connected with the United Nations community, but whose contribution to the aims of the UNWG-Geneva would be considered an asset, may become Associate Members on recommendation of two UNWG-Geneva members and upon the approval of the Executive Committee.
