WORK > Digital Portfolio > Resilience Alliance Website
Resilience Alliance is a research network based out of Ottawa studying the resilience of social-ecological systems. The overall goal with this project was to demonstrate the vibrancy of this active research community, promote member contributions and provide them with tools to help them thrive.
In its previous state, this website functioned as a database more than as a tool to engage members and encourage their involvement. The new site is more appealing with the use of fresh imagery and bright colours, and puts the members and their contributions forefront. Their activity is featured on the homepage, the faces behind the research are shown, and the human aspect behind the work is conveyed.
Because this website contained a lot of information that was potentially overwhelming, we also focused on making it more functional and structured towards aiding members to navigate it more efficiently. Making the resources easily accessible was key.
