Description
TERMSOF REFERENCE
Task: Comprehensive Digital Platform
Organization: Aflatoun International
Location: Remote
Project Duration: 8 months
Closing Date: 22nd June 2026

ABOUT AFLATOUN
Aflatoun International is a global non-profit organisation headquartered in Amsterdam, with a Global Programme Hub in Nairobi. Working through a network of nearly 400 civil society and government partners across 100 countries, Aflatoun's Social and Financial Education (SFE), builds the agency, resilience, and protective behaviours of children and young people from early childhood through adolescence.
Aflatoun's impact has been independently verified through randomised controlled trials, tracer studies, and World Bank-partnered evaluations. Aflatoun has been recognized globally (Brookings, Harvard, HundrEd, Million Lives Club) for its high-impact, low-cost model, which has shown to be effective in changing behaviours of participants across the globe.
Currently, the organisation is developing a Digital Learning Platform to serve as the primary digital environment through which its partners and teachers access training, curricula, eLearning courses, and collaborative resources. The platform will support Aflatoun's mission by equipping those who deliver its SFE programmes with the tools and knowledge they need to do so effectively.
Who the Platform Will Serve
This platform is designed specifically for Aflatoun's partners and teachers, the civil society organisations, government entities, and trained facilitators who deliver Aflatoun curricula on the ground. It is not a learner-facing platform for children or young people. Its primary users are:
Partner organisation staff and programme managers from Aflatoun's global network
Certified Aflatoun facilitators and classroom teachers delivering SFE programmes
Trainers of Trainers (ToT) who cascade capacity to facilitators within partner organisations
Aflatoun International programme and regional staff who support partners
The platform will enhance the capacity of these users to deliver Aflatoun curricula with fidelity and confidence, by providing centralised access to training, resources, and peer learning tools.
Rationale for a Digital Learning Platform
As Aflatoun International continues to scale across geographies, the management and delivery of partner-facing training and curriculum resources has become increasingly complex. A unified digital platform addresses the following needs:
Centralising access to official Aflatoun curricula.
Standardising facilitator and partner training delivery through hosted and recorded sessions
Supporting self-paced learning via modern eLearning formats, enabling partners to build capacity at their own pace
Integrating an existing AI tool that makes curriculum content more accessible and searchable
Showcasing collaborative work and joint projects with partner organisations
PLATFORM OVERVIEW
The platform will be structured around four functional sections, accessible to authenticated users through a personalised home page and dashboard. Each section serves a distinct purpose within Aflatoun's partner and facilitator support model.
Training Hub and Curriculum Access: Hosted and recorded training sessions; structured access to Aflatoun curricula by programme type and age group, restricted to approved users
eLearning Centre: Self-paced online courses supporting standard eLearning formats with certificaion and badge feature (H5P, SCORM, xAPI, video, and others)
AI Learning Assistant: Embedded integration of Aflatoun's existing web-based AI tool, enabling users to query curriculum and training content
Collaboration Showcase: A showcase of joint projects, co-created resources, and collaborative outputs produced with partner organisations
SECTION A: TRAINING HUB AND CURRICULUM ACCESS
Overview
The Training Hub is the central learning and resource section of the platform. It combines live and recorded training sessions with structured access to Aflatoun's suite of international curricula. Access to this section and in particular to curriculum materials is restricted to approved users based on their role and organisational affiliation.
Hosted and Recorded Training Sessions
Live Training Sessions
The platform shall support the hosting and delivery of live, virtual training sessions. These sessions will be used by Aflatoun International and its partners to train facilitators, conduct ToT workshops, and deliver programme orientation.
Requirements include:
Integration with a virtual classroom or webinar tool (e.g. Zoom, BigBlueButton, or equivalent)
Calendar-based scheduling and user registration for upcoming sessions
Facilitator controls: screen sharing, breakout rooms, polling, and in-session chat
Automated notifications and reminders sent to registered participants
Attendance tracking and session reporting accessible to administrators
Recorded Session Library
All training sessions shall be recordable and made available for later viewing within the platform. Recordings are stored on the platform itself and are not dependent on external links. Requirements include:
Searchable and filterable library of recordings, organised by topic, programme type, target age group, and date
User-level viewing history and progress tracking
Supplementary materials and resources linked to each session
Subtitle and transcript support to aid accessibility and multilingual use
Aflatoun Curriculum Access
Curriculum Structure
Aflatoun's curricula span multiple programme types, each designed for a specific age group and delivered by trained facilitators.
Demographic-Based Access Control
Curriculum materials shall only be accessible to users who have been approved for access based on their role and organisational context. This is a core compliance and safeguarding requirement. The system shall enforce the following:
Role-based access control (RBAC) tied to verified user profile attributes, including role, partner organisation, and programme area
Age-group gating, ensuring each curriculum type is only visible to users whose role corresponds to the intended delivery demographic
Organisation-level permissions, allowing partner organisations to access only the curricula relevant to their approved and active programmes
Administrator-controlled approval workflow for new user registrations, requiring sign-off before curriculum access is granted
Full audit logging of all curriculum access events, exportable by administrators
Periodic access review prompts to ensure permissions remain current and accurate
All curriculum content must be protected by a mandatory authentication and authorisation layer enforced at the server level. No curriculum material — including previews, descriptions, or attachments — shall be accessible to unauthenticated or unapproved users. This requirement is non-negotiable given the safeguarding responsibilities associated with Aflatoun's work with children and young people.
SECTION B: eLEARNING CENTRE
Overview
The eLearning Centre provides a dedicated space for self-paced learning. It functions as a full-featured Learning Management System (LMS) module, capable of hosting a wide range of digital learning content formats. This section supports Aflatoun's partners and facilitators in building their knowledge and skills at their own pace, complementing live training sessions and curriculum resources.
Supported Content Formats
The platform must natively support the following eLearning content standards and formats without requiring users to install additional software:
H5P , Open-source interactive content quizzes, drag-and-drop activities, branching scenarios, interactive video
SCORM 1.2 / 2004 , Industry-standard packaged courses with completion tracking and scoring
xAPI, Advanced learning data tracking supporting offline and mobile learning experiences
AICC , Legacy course compatibility standard for older eLearning content packages
MP4 / Video , Hosted video content with progress tracking and chapter navigation
PDF / Documents , Reference materials, manuals, guides, and supplementary reading
Audio (MP3 / OGG) , Podcast-style content, guided reflections, and oral learning formats
Embedded iFrames , Externally hosted interactive tools and content where licensing requires it
LMS Functional Requirements
Course catalogue with search functionality and filters by topic, programme type, language, and level
Enrolment management supporting self-enrolment, administrator assignment, and prerequisite-gated access
Learner dashboard showing enrolled courses, completion status, and earned certificates
Automated certificate generation upon successful course completion
Assessment engine supporting multiple choice, open-ended responses, and multimedia question types
Course completion and progress data exportable by administrators for reporting purposes
Multi-language interface (English, Dutch, Arabic and Spanish) and content support, reflecting Aflatoun's multilingual partner network
Mobile-responsive design ensuring full course functionality on smartphones and tablets
SECTION C: AI LEARNING ASSISTANT (INTEGRATION)
Integration Note
The AI Learning Assistant described in this section is an existing tool developed by and for Aflatoun International, currently available in web-based format. The scope of work for this platform component is integration only. The platform developer will not build a new AI tool; they will embed the existing AI within the platform environment in a manner that provides a seamless user experience.
Overview
The platform will embed Aflatoun's existing web-based AI Learning Assistant, enabling authenticated users to interact with it directly from within the platform. This tool allows partners and facilitators to query and explore Aflatoun curriculum content, training materials, and programme resources through a natural language interface.
Integration Scope
The following integration approaches shall be evaluated, and the most technically appropriate method selected in consultation with Aflatoun International:
iFrame embedding of the existing web-based AI interface within a dedicated platform page
API-based integration that allows the platform to pass authenticated user context to the AI backend
Single Sign-On (SSO) pass-through so that users who are logged into the platform do not need to authenticate separately to access the AI tool
The selected approach must ensure the AI tool functions correctly within the platform environment without degrading its existing capabilities.
User-Facing Functionality
The following capabilities are provided by the existing AI tool and shall remain accessible to users post-integration:
Natural language queries about Aflatoun curricula (e.g. 'What activities support financial literacy for 10-year-olds?')
Retrieval of relevant curriculum sections, facilitation guides, and training materials
Contextual recommendations based on programme area, target age group, or country context
Conversation history retained within a user session
Source attribution linking AI responses to the original Aflatoun materials
Integration Requirements and Constraints
The integration shall not alter, retrain, or modify the underlying AI model or its content base
Aflatoun International retains full ownership and control of the AI tool; the platform developer has no rights over its underlying technology
The AI tool must be accessible only to authenticated and approved platform users
Any technical dependencies, API keys, or access credentials required for integration shall be provided by Aflatoun International
The platform developer must test the integration thoroughly and document the implementation approach
SECTION D: COLLABORATION SHOWCASE/ MARKETPLACE
Overview
