PLRI(The Paulo Longo Research Initiative) is a project hosted by the IDS(Institute of Development Studies) which aims to improve understanding of the issues affecting the lives of sex workers. The initiative is a collaboration of scholars, policy analysts and sex workers. It brings together research and advocacy material that challenges conventional approaches to researching sex work and that promotes legitimacy and labour rights for sex workers.
Working on an extremely tight budget we began by offering PLRI a simple basic Drupal installation for their content. It gave them the basic tools they needed to add and classify their content, so that it could be served up in properly indexed sections of resources.
"Wave":http://www.wave.coop, our design partners in Hastings, handled the graphic design of the web pages. Their design is based on clean, well structured xhtml code in a non-table based layout and using cascading style sheets (CSS) for all the presentational information. This improves the site’s chances in search engine content rankings and also makes pages quicker to download, much more accessible to all users and easier to update.
