AINU works with the snowflake model, which replaces a single leader in a network with interconnected leaders. This model has a flexible and accessible structure that provides the opportunity for expansion and encourages accountability and results. It is important to stress that AINU’s snowflake model of organizing is not a hierarchical structure but a unified network in which everyone works together on combatting human rights violations.
