ABU Website Project – FAQ

1. What is this project about?
• We need to keep our members informed, updated and engaged. We need a dynamic, attractive and easy to navigate website with features that can accomplish this. The current site does not currently project an image that befits a global organization with members in the thousands, stretching from Russia in the north, to Turkey in the West to Australia in the South and to Samoa in the East.

• It is with this aim in mind, that the ABU seeks to engage a professional, committed, creative, dedicated and responsive organisation to bring ABU’s new website online, with improved functionality, design and enhanced user-experience features.
