African Leadership Academy
African Leadership Academy seeks to transform Africa by developing a powerful network of young leaders who will work together to address Africa’s greatest challenges, achieve extraordinary social impact, and accelerate the continent’s growth trajectory.
With a focus on transforming Africa through education and leadership, African Leadership Academy wanted a website that could effectively communicate its mission, attract prospective students, and serve as a hub for its extensive network of young leaders. While the existing website conveyed the academy's spirit, it lacked advanced functionalities and custom features necessary for a smooth user experience and efficient content delivery. Additionally, the academy was eager to have a modernized website with custom animations to engage visitors, and plugin integrations for added functionality.
Project Goals:
To tackle the challenge of elevating the African Leadership Academy's web presence, our digital solutions were tailored to meet each specific project goal. Initially, we reimagined the main page design to align it with the academy's values and goals. Instead of traditional academic layouts, we opted for a more modern, clean design that employs a balanced color scheme and typography, resonating with the youthful, progressive target audience.
We augmented the website with custom features such as an interactive alumni success map and real-time event updates, achieved through seamless plugin integrations. These additions were made not only to enhance user engagement but also to simplify content management for the academy staff.
We further enriched the user experience by adding subtle, custom animations that greet visitors as they scroll, providing a sense of discovery and engagement without overshadowing the content. The final website is not only fully responsive but also aligned with the academy’s core mission, acting as a compelling platform for young leaders across Africa and beyond.
TagDiv was a great partner for us. They have both the technical expertise and the design expertise that helped make our new website beautiful and functional. They were incredibly quick in their communication and in getting the site up. They gave us advice on how to make our design better, and were incredible thought partners in helping us to build a beautiful website.
