The Association of German Foundations in cooperation with the International Centre for Franchising and Cooperation have just published a comprehensive manual on the theory and practice of social franchising, Social Franchising - A Way of Systematic Replication to Increase Social Impact.
The manual explores the potential of adapting the method of franchising to the social sector and is part of the Social Franchise project, which the Association of German Foundations is carrying out in cooperation with six renowned European foundations. It ensues from the International Social Franchise Summit held in December 2007.
