It uses the Social Franchise Model. Aflatoun supports partners with technical assistance, contextualisation of materials and training teachers in the use of our methodology and materials. The focus is on building the capacity on the ground through investing in local master trainers. The International Secretariat and Aflatoun Implementing Partners rely on a reciprocal commitment. Key principles include: (i) Open source: The Secretariat provides materials to partners for free. In return partners share innovations; (ii) Partner input: Partner expertise is essential to the quality of the programmes. Partners share experiences & participate in learning visits; (iii) Coordinated communications: The Secretariat facilitates communications between itself and partners, and amongst partners. It provides frequent network updates; (iv) Equality: The Network is comprised of diverse organizations all of whom are considered equals in collaboration; (v) Consensus building: A participative method of operation is applied. At its heart, the movement is about children. Aflatoun is expanding its role by focusing on integrating social and financial education into national curricula, while continuing to prioritise the most vulnerable children.
