The Forced Migration Studies Programme (FMSP)is an internationally engaged; Africa-oriented; and Africa-based centre of excellence for research and teaching that helps shape global discourse on migration aid and social transformation. The site was created using Drupal 6, based on the Acquia Drupal distribution. The home page displays a slideshow in the header which the client can update themselves by uploading a photo and placing it in the slideshow nodequeue. The rounded corners are automatically generated using imagecache actions.

The NGOPulse portal was built using Drupal and makes extensive use of Organic Groups and Panels. Content from an existing Joomla website was converted to Drupal using custom PHP scripts which imported the data into the Drupal database. An image gallery carousel allows users to scroll through images associated with articles/groups. Users can register on the site to post comments, participate in discussions and create blogs. The NGO Pulse Portal and the weekly NGO Pulse e-newsletter provide a gateway to the South African NGO sector.

Human Rights Watch using Drupal

The Human Rights Watch website uses Drupal to report on Human Rights, call people to action (support/donate/act), and inform the public. It makes strong use of Drupal's taxonomy system (categories), so you can view content by region and topic. Looks like the image manipulation is done using the Image Cache module.

The site is also available in many languages - just click the language link in the top right of the site to see it in action.
