Rational for the web site

Conceiving the exhibition as a tour increase the possibilities to direct the project towards the benefit of the local communities. Working extensively with local press, companies and local associations, clubs and unions we would hope to create awareness of the exhibition and make it more accessible to ethnic groups, school groups as well as enhancing disability access. We are convinced that the exhibition will have a broad-ranging audience and we will make all possible effort to meet the full scope of that audience. We wish to accompany the exhibition with an extensive site for e learning, i.e. an online platform for further research on Hodgkin, a discussion forum, a platform for questions and possibly e-cards. Instead of having a basic link referring the exhibition on The Barbican web site. Having a fully operational and searchable site to accompany the exhibition provides the exhibition with both a large dimension of additional information and learning and adds a completely new concept of life update (discussions and answers to questions) and interaction. The site will provide the opportunity to involve the audience further, after their visit and to create awareness for the exhibition in general.
