What the client said
“Always personable and professional, working with Kernel has changed the way students engage in university politics.
Building an array of social communication technologies and utilising the best open source materials was never going to be a small task, but the results really do speak for themselves. Sleek, uncluttered and chock full of intuitive design, the website is now our most important advocacy and education tool. Their quality and care has put us firmly on the human rights landscape in the UK. They were a joy to work with. Brilliant.”

UCL Student Human Rights ProgrammeWhat we did
This site was updated in December 2010 with a major redesign and realignment.
This website for the UCL Student Human Rights Programme, a student organisation partly funded by University College London, was one of our largest projects to date. We produced a major collaborative website designed to maximise programme participation and publish content to external users. The site, which has been designed to simultaneously advertise the project itself and also act as a discussion forum and dynamic online human rights community, has been extremely well received.
The site itself is intended to showcase the programme’s content output in the form of text and news updates, photos, videos and audio. Frequent newsletters are placed on the site in PDF format and added to an online repository, and a range of academic content is freely available to members of the public.
The community based ‘Exchange’ is a lively interactive forum for debate and discussion on human rights issues and attracts significant web traffic. Through a comprehensive tagging system, all site content is linked together and offers a comprehensive range of material on a multitude of topics within individual subject areas.
The member backend utilised on this website is customised for both members and moderators. With several individuals responsible for different areas of the programme, the backend allows them to administer content for their own projects, whilst carefully restricting administrative access to non-essential system settings.
