The client
The International Institute of Environment and Development is a non-profit research organisation with a focus on sustainable development.
The brief
Race to the Top was an interdepartmental project designed to measure the perfomance of the major supermarket chains over a number of critical indicators. An internet resource was required to make the performance criteria available to the public, and to enable the various stakeholders of the project to engage in dialogue.
The solution
The website was designed to make the relationship between the various aspects of the project as transparent as possible. The architecture and navigation were designed to be logical and accessible. The colour scheme was chosen to reflect the priorities of the project which included green issues such as the recycling of waste. The site was built using nested Dreamweaver templates in XHTML+CSS and included a regularly updated news section which was implemented using the Radio Userland content management system. A mailing list was implemented using ezMLM.
