Case study
Platform migration and ongoing management
The African Union child-rights committee's public website, moved from WordPress onto Drupal in 2022 and managed by us in every period since.

The problem
ACERWC, the African Union organ that monitors implementation of the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, needed its public-facing platform moved off WordPress onto Drupal with its content carried across rather than re-entered.
The solution
In February and March 2022 we designed the target content model on Drupal first, then migrated the Committee's content against it. Since the migration we have managed the platform continuously.
Our role
Platform partner: migration, then continuous platform management since 2022.
Outcome
Four years of unbroken platform ownership on an African Union institution's public-facing site, through a platform migration, with no change of supplier.
Technology
- Drupal
- WordPress (migrated from)
