I'm a member of Unima by default (comes included in my local association's 
membership) and had no "return on the investment", yet.
But I know it will eventually help. They have various bursaries, and 
worldwide contacts. I know people who are on the board of Unima (North 
America) and they do a great job. I guess it is a matter of what level of 
involvement and need you are.
If you stay local and don't go on tours or on puppet-related trips, Unima 
might not seem very interesting.

I receive the yearly newsletter, and so far I have not found anything of use 
personally. But I intend to take advantage and get involved with Unima in 
the near future.


Can anyone more experienced tell us what Unima is really all about, to a 
"more basic" level? I mean besides the great organising and public realtions 
they do?
