Abstract
The adaptions of principles when they are put into practice is both hopeful and challenging. Hopeful because it means that those involved are actively participating in making principles relevant to their own circumstances. Challenging because of the need to ensure that the adaptions enhance the principles on which they were based, building on them rather than detracting from them.
