The goal of this project was to help Vital Voices Costa Rica impact more women. Using a human-centered design process, our project team designed client-centered web platforms that optimized the organization’s mentoring process to increase efficiency, communication, and organization. Based in-depth conversations with stakeholders, a participant observation study, a survey, and focus groups, our team designed an integrated web platform that included design definitions and detailed instructions for coding the site.
