Details

The project aims to revamp the YEG Empowering YOU website to enhance its design, accessibility, and user experience. The current website does not fully reflect the event's values and vision, particularly in supporting individuals with visible and non-visible disabilities.


The goal is to create a more engaging and informative digital presence that attracts community members, collaborators, and potential sponsors. The redesigned website should be inclusive, easy to navigate, and effectively communicate the mission of YEG Empowering YOU. It should also provide clear pathways for users to connect, learn about upcoming events, and access support services. By improving these aspects, the website will better serve its audience and promote the organization's initiatives.

Deliverables

The deliverables for this project include a redesigned website prototype that incorporates improved design and accessibility features. The prototype should demonstrate enhanced navigation and user experience, reflecting the values and mission of YEG Empowering YOU. Additionally, a report detailing the design choices and accessibility improvements made should be provided. The final deliverable will be a presentation showcasing the redesigned website and its features to stakeholders.


Minimal training on future website maintenance is required before the completion of project.
