Relaunch of the Aktion Mensch Familienratgeber

The completely revised online portal Familienratgeber.de offers a wide range of content and support services for people with disabilities and their relatives. It is designed to help people with disabilities to live and work independently. It is therefore an important contribution to greater inclusion and accessibility.

The Familienratgeber was developed by d-SIRE in a user-centered manner and tested with the respective target groups at an early stage. Not only is the public website accessible, but also the customized content management system craft cms. Another unique feature is that all editorial content is also available in Easy Language.

Familienratgeber.de provides contacts to over 25,000 initiatives, advice centers and social institutions. This makes it the largest address database in Germany in this field. A network of regional partners maintains the data records in each region and keeps them up to date.

d-SIRE entwickelt erste komplett barrierefreie Plattform für soziales und ehrenamtliches Engagement in Deutschland

Aktion Mensch's range of services for volunteering and inclusive engagement has taken a huge leap forward: the volunteer database, which has been in place since 2008, has been fundamentally revamped and expanded into a comprehensive platform.

The new volunteering platform has been accessible via the Aktion Mensch web portal for several weeks now. But not only there: the complete application can also be integrated free of charge by partners on external websites, for example by regional volunteer agencies or associations. Using a simple configuration, they can even adapt the design and function of the application to their individual requirements and corporate design.

During the course of the project, numerous workshops were held with experts from the volunteer agencies and with committed people. This ensured that the new service optimally meets the needs of both target groups.

As part of the project, d-SIRE was responsible for consulting, design and UX as well as the entire technical implementation in the front and back end. The application was implemented in the Microsoft Azure Cloud and offers interfaces for connecting external services.

Digital accessibility is of great importance to Aktion Mensch. For this reason, not only the public website, but also the closed area for the customized administration environment has been made fully accessible.

Portrait of Judith Williams

Beautiful. Powerful. You. New Online Shop for Judith Williams

Judith Williams is a personality brand and beauty expert. She is a businesswoman, family person, investor in the TV show "Höhle der Löwen" and a socially engaged ambassador. An enabler. Out of love for cosmetics, she founded Judith Williams Cosmetics in 2007 and became the most successful brand in European shopping TV. Today, it has grown into a company with international reach and European production facilities, a successful company with a face and a lot of passion!

Since December 2020, Judith Williams has also been selling her cosmetics products for the first time directly through digital channels. Her strong personality naturally takes a central role in the online store – because no one knows the products better than Judith Williams herself, and no one else could present them more convincingly.

Our task was to combine emotional storytelling with a unique shopping experience to create an extraordinary brand experience. In addition to the development of the visual and interface design, we were responsible for the communication concept, content modeling, wireframing, digital user experience, and SEO. The store implementation was done by a technical service provider in close cooperation with us.
