How One World Trust modernised its digital presence to serve a global policy audience.
The situation
Work that shapes international policy — and a website that was not communicating it.
One World Trust produces research and advocacy work that influences how international organisations think about governance and accountability. Their audience includes policymakers, academics, civil society organisations, and international institutions. The website was not reaching that audience effectively — it was difficult to navigate, hard to search, and did not present the depth and rigour of the organisation's work with the authority it deserved.
What we did
A policy-grade website rebuild, built for a global professional audience.
We redesigned and rebuilt the One World Trust website around the needs of a global professional audience — policymakers, researchers, and institutional partners who need to find and engage with content quickly. We structured the information architecture around the organisation's research areas and programmes, making it easy for visitors to find relevant publications, policy positions, and contact points. WCAG AA accessibility compliance was achieved throughout, ensuring the site was accessible to users with a wide range of needs.
The results
One World Trust's work deserves a digital presence that matches its standing in international policy circles. The rebuilt website communicates the rigour, depth, and authority of the organisation — to policymakers, academics, and institutions across the world.
