For Istanbul Initiative, an international network that brings together civil society organizations (CSOs) from various countries for global prevention and advocacy efforts, we developed the official web platform that reflects the institution’s mission, activities, and global impact.
Our main goal in this project was to create a professional, accessible, and easy-to-manage website that presents the initiative’s global summits, publications, declarations, and participating CSOs to the world.
We built the technical infrastructure on Umbraco CMS, a .NET-based platform, to provide the flexible content and relationship management required by such an international network. Within Umbraco, we developed integrated custom Document Types to manage the annual "Summits," participating "CSOs," "Speakers," and resulting "Declarations." This structure allows all past and upcoming events to be archived and presented in an organized way with their relevant content such as media, participant lists, and final declarations.
As a result, we delivered a reliable web platform that strongly represents Istanbul Initiative’s global advocacy mission and cross-CSO collaboration in the digital space, with easy management and a presentation that matches the institution’s international reputation.
