Green Crescent Website Recognized with an International “Outstanding Achievement” Award

After being completely renewed in terms of both its front-end design and infrastructure in January 2015, the Green Crescent website was recognized with an “Outstanding Achievement” award in the “Non-Governmental Organization” category of the 2015 Interactive Media Awards.

The Green Crescent website has been honored by the Interactive Media Council (IMC) with a prestigious Outstanding Achievement award, one of the most prestigious awards in the international digital world. Of the 128 applications received, www.yesilay.org.tr was the only Turkish non-governmental organization website deemed worthy of an award after an evaluation process that took into account design, content, practicality, functionality and user-friendliness.

Compliance with international criteria

Making active use of written and visual media, the Internet and social media networks in its efforts in the field of addictions, Green Crescent made the switch at the beginning of 2015 to a more user-friendly website that was more in tune with today’s design trends and developing technological infrastructures, thus supporting the conveyance of its messages to all segments of society.

To this end, the interface was renewed and was made mobile compatible, access to printed and visual media was accelerated, and membership and donation procedures were simplified. The site was also integrated with the Green Crescent social media platforms and enriched with content for people of all ages, while also being provided with multi-language support. All of these efforts contributed to the Green Crescent website being granted the international "Outstanding Achievement" award.
