Description

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission are creating an engagement opportunity for young people through a 'junior research volunteer' role which will involve developing a digital platform to share the stories of those we commemorate. The platform will be designed to engage 13-21-year-olds but will also complement our suite of digital products including our websites and the CWGC App.

The digital platform onto which young people can upload stories or other information about those who fought and died in the two world wars, it will have its own independent database but will be interoperable with other CWGC systems, notably the website, casualty database and potentially the digital asset management system.

The purpose of this Request for Information is to invite creative and technical solutions from digital suppliers.
