CAS in Interaction Design 2015/2016 – HSR Rapperswil & University of Basel

Our project partner was Mama Tierra, a Swiss non-profit organisation that supports the Wayuu people from La Guajira Peninsula in Colombia and Venezuela. The organisation is young and small, and doesn’t have a way to attract donations via Website yet. Therefore we were commissioned to create a donation platform for their website.

Our objective for the project was to create a platform that would give the potential donor the feeling of transparency and accountability.

The result of all this work is summarised in this report (in German)
