The world is rapidly changing and becoming more complex. It is more important than ever before that children gain social and financial skills to learn to get along and get ahead in life.
Socially and economically empowered children and young people who act as agents of change in their own lives for a more equitable world.
AFLATOT The early years of a child offer a unique opportunity to shape their development. In the Aflatot curriculum three to six year-olds gather the building blocks of social and financial literacy before they reach primary school.
Wij zijn een NGO, gevestigd in Amsterdam, die sociaal en financieel onderwijs biedt aan meer dan 10 miljoen kinderen en jonge mensen wereldwijd.
We geloven dat elk kind dezelfde kansen verdient in het leven en we creëren kansen door kinderen te onderwijzen op het gebied van sociale en financiële educatie.
Waarom zijn we ontstaan?
Aflatoun biedt sociaal en financieel onderwijs aan kinderen en jongeren in Nederland en diverse andere landen. Op een praktische en speelse manier leren de kinderen essentiële vaardigheden waar ze nu zelfstandiger en later financieel onafhankelijk van worden, dit vaak in tegenstelling met hun ouders nu. Zij doorbreken de negatieve spiraal waarin hun ouders zitten. De innovatieve methode van Aflatoun stelt kinderen in staat een positieve draai te geven aan hun leven en zo de vicieuze cirkel van ongelijkheid en armoede te doorbreken.
Wat doen we?
We ontwikkelen lesmateriaal voor kinderen, jongeren en jongvolwassenen tussen de 3 en 24+ jaar oud. De lesprogramma’s worden gegeven door leraren en/of trainers die hiervoor worden opgeleid door ons. Vervolgens krijgen de kinderen en jongvolwassenen op school 20 á 40 uur les over sociale en financiële educatie. Dit gebeurt spelenderwijs, waarbij het kind altijd centraal staat. We geloven in onze lesprogramma’s en zijn trots dat zowel Harvard en Stanford ons hebben uitgeroepen tot een van de meest innovatieve lesprogramma’s.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 was a challenging, unpredictable year for all of us. At Aflatoun International, we had to innovate, adapt, and find new ways of supporting our partners and delivering social and financial education to children and youth worldwide. We have been inspired by the resilience and creativity of our partner network. Despite the challenges, through its global network of partner organisations, Aflatoun reached 5.6 million children and young people in 2020: 3.1 million through civil society organisations, and 2.5 million through governments.

Based upon an environmental scan and reflections on the lessons learned, including a survey among the network partners, the new strategy for the organisation (2016-2020) has been developed. The coming five years we are committed to work together towards Social & Financial Education being recognised as an integral element of quality education and a key enabler for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Aflatoun International should be recognised as the thought leader on Child Social & Financial Education. An active global network will exchange ideas, experiences and best-practices on important issues like SFE implementation, delivering at scale with equity and quality assurance. The strategy document outlines the key strategic directions for the next five years.
