Stislow Design is proud to collaborate with mission-driven WFUNA on its branding and marketing communications. Their newly designed website launched spring 2019 with a more intuitive user experience, responsive and mobile-friendly platform and a content management framework to cohesively envelop their various initiatives and programs. The complex site architecture was a key challenge solved by prioritizing the various menus to users types. The main navigation was simplified to key themes, initiatives and programs. The homepage and landing pages were designed to navigate new site users to all information about WFUNA. The footer was leveraged to host links that were less sought out. And, micro site templates were designed and developed to contain the information architecture of the individual initiatives and programs separate of the main website.
Content is color coded to key themes (WFUNA and their global network, peace and security, sustainable development, human rights, global citizenship, and youth empowerment) creating a vibrant feel in the news masonry.
