Case Study: GIWPS amplifies women peacemakers with Forum One's data storytelling website

GIWPS - Customer Case Study

The Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security (GIWPS) needed to present its important research on female peacemakers in an accessible, engaging format that moved beyond dense academic papers. Their challenge was to ensure their Women, Peace, and Security Index data was easy to digest and encouraged community engagement. They partnered with vendor Forum One for a web design and data storytelling solution.

Forum One designed and developed a new WordPress website for GIWPS featuring accessible data visualizations and a dedicated storytelling component called "Profiles in Peace." This platform amplified the voices of women peacebuilders through videos and oral histories. The highly successful launch at the United Nations resulted in a scalable website that has maintained high web traffic, significantly increasing GIWPS's ability to share its vital mission.
